My great-grandparents migrated to İstanbul in 1950s/1960s. All of my grandparents (all four of them) were born in İstanbul. If I take a DNA test, can I take place in Turkish_Istanbul regional averages?

I have Turkish_Istanbul among my regions so maybe you will score it?

But more likely that you will score Turkish_Edirne, they are Balkan Turks.

İstanbul Turks are also part Balkan Turks, right?
