    I thought the Simpsons were vague about Springfields location as it was supposed to be anywhere, USA. I wouldn’t have guessed Oregon.

      “From up here you can see the four states that boarder Springfield. Ohio, Nevada, Maine and Kentucky”

      Canonically Simpsons isn’t set anywhere real. In reality Groening is from OR and a lot of the names in the show are from places from where he grew up.
