I would be interested to see the DNA results of apricity members who are US citizens. If you've taken multiple DNA tests, post the one you think is the most accurate based on your known family history. Also, feel free to state the last immigrant ancestor you had.
I've taken multiple DNA tests, but I think 23andMe is the most accurate for me based on my research of my family. The only categories I have no evidence of are Sardinian, North African, and Somali. Since these categories I'm uncertain of make up only 0.9% of my results, I don't think they're a huge stain on the accuracy of the test (especially because I can't trace past my 2nd great-grandparents on one side of my family, and they were immigrants). The specific locations I'm listing under the categories are the ones I received on the test and have confirmed through research.
My last immigrant ancestor on my mom's side was my great-grandfather, who was from Croatia (born in Sisak-Moslavina county). My last immigrant ancestor on my dad's side is my 4th great-grandather, who was from France (born in Marseille).
