You can use https://cloudflare-test.judge.sh/ to check from which Cloudflare nodes the sites are actually served.

In my experience, sites on Enterprise plan are always loading from the closest node, which is never used by sites on Free plan.

What’s funny is that for me in NYC metro area, all of the Free and Enterprise ones come from the closest location to me (EWR), but the Pro/Business ones are a wide mix, some EWR, some ORD, some YUL. The ones on the Toronto hosted pop are by far the longest ping time, yet the owners of said accounts seemingly paid for the privilege of slower response times. What am I missing?
