I get where you’re coming from, especially when it comes to immediate family such as Juliette and her father; but given the strict societal heirarchy of the Silo - it wouldn’t surprise me if there was a drastic shift in accents depending on high high you ascend.

Like, the wealthier and more affluent levels on top would put on an almost Transatlantic accent to intentionally differentiate themselves from the riff-raff below.

Just consider of the width and breadth of English accents, given that it would be much easier to travel between English cities now, than ascending 100 levels of the Silo in the show.
