US-Mid West Based, keep getting assigned to Anexia-Rio. ~150 ms response time

Olivier Poitrey I am seeing odd behavior. I am located in the US Midwest. However, If I look at dnsleaktest.com or test.nextdns.io I often see "anexia-rio-1" as the server in use.
I checked with the diag tool and see a good amount more info. Is this working as expected?

I am in NY and get bunch of random servers from France
Brazil
Australia
Anexia-Rio also there but they are anycast 2 which is secondary DNS . I wish that secondary DNS was at least from USA I don’t mind if it’s from west coast but again it’s the worst case scenario. Your primary DNS is Vultr which is getting excellent ping!
