                                                                       The big question that needs an answer.....
WHERE IS SPRINGFIELD????


                 Us fans of the Simpsons wanted to know that since the first season of the show. There are Springfield's in many states:
*Oregon
*Pennsylvania
*Illinois
*Vermont
*Wisconsin
*Colorado
*Kentucky

Where is it??????

   Sometimes, they would explain the state (that doesn't include Alabama, or somewhere in the North East)

   Some states don't even have Springfield: Such as: North Carolina, North Dakota, Washington State, Wyoming and a few more.

Guessing this show picked the city Springfield, just because there is a Springfield mostly everywhere in the states. Not All, but some. Sometimes the episodes would take place in different states. It would be in Illinois, Wisconsin, even Oregon where the creator Matt Groening used to live.

Sometimes, you will never know where in Springfield the show takes place, but it's a mystery to many and for some, not.

Some episodes conclude what state they are not in.
  Alabama, Florida, Washington DC, California. Who knows. To me, it's just a cartoon.


Sometimes, I concluded where they are by the show, and episode itself. Even in the movie, they say that they border four states have the city of Springfield in them.

In the state of Oregon, there is. Concluding whenever they are dealing with the city of Shelbyville...they would be in Oregon.

I can tell by some episodes, what state they are in. The Simpsons are never in just one state, I think they are in more than one.

    To me, Springfield is just a town. A town which a fictional family lives in. I've been to Springfield, in Pennsylvania. It is nothing like the town that the Simpsons live in. With the imaginations of the writers as well as knowing what state the Simpsons are in, we eventually figure out, where in Springfield the Simpsons are in.

    To me, I just enjoy the show, knowing they just label it Springfield, USA. They even try to fool viewers, locating what state they are in. Never works out. LOL.


So, where is Springfield?

In real life, I have very little doubt that there is a music store next to Moe's Tavern, or a Kwik-E-Mart.

But when they promoted the Simpsons Movie, they had a theme park in California with their own versions of a Slurpee, as well as Krusty theme roller coaster. It's interesting, but the better question to this is,

    WHERE IS SPRINGFIELD????? Like I said, it's everywhere.
