That question has been raging on and on. First of all our life doesnt depend on where springfield is. I think its a parody of not small but not overly huge town. You have the mean boss that everyone has to kiss up to, you have a newsncaster who is off his hinges, you got weird radio hosts, you have lazy police officers etc.
Where is Springfield?
Thank you, thank you SO much!
You're completely right-- *I* AM SPRINGFIELD!

This is a Springfield Isotopes cap. When you wear it, you're wearing Bill McNeal.
A noble spirit embiggens the McNeal in all of us.

here's some evidence you might like to read...

-- Homer tells Apu that he may have to locate Springfield on the map for his citizenship. Homer can't find it, and just when Lisa points to the correct place, Bart blocks the view. The states that we cannot see (i.e. the states Lisa could be pointing to) are:
North Dakota, South Dakota, South Carolina, Florida, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Tenessee, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and New Mexico.

-- Marge is on the phone, giving her address to the egg company: "742, Evergreen Terrace, Springfield. O, hi-o Maude, come on in!" (Ohio)
[BABF16] -- After the family vacation, OFF say that they are only welcome in Florida and North Dakota. Homer says that Florida smells, and the family are only left with North Dakota. They are welcome in their own state, so it must be one of these two (most likely North Dakota)
1st of all, stop posting this to every "Where is Springfield?" thread...2nd, they had just got kicked out of Flordia, it was Arizonia that smelled. And Marge wouldn't have said "North Dakota, here we come!" if they lived there. And third of all, Springfield don't exist... David

check out this site! It is a search for Springfield. The show tells us where Sprinfield ISN'T in several episodes, so the hope is to narrow it down and find out where Springfield IS.
Sorry Mick, that is a mystery that will probably die with Matt Groening.
Hi! I'm Chad Young. You might remember me from such newsgroups as Alt Toys Transformers and Alt.Fan.heman-shera. I'll be looking forward to being a part of this ng.

It is in Lower Slobovia...
Remember in "Trash of the Titans" when the whole city was moved 5 miles? It might have been 5 miles into another state. Since we don't know when this episode takes place (in relation to all other episodes) whether it be January, April, or December of whichever-year-they're-in, this nullifies all previous and future clues and therefore makes everything void.

*Not a guarantee.
I think its somewhere in the Northeast of the USA. We know its near an ocean (the many beach and/or boat oriented episodes) and New York City is a relatively cheap and convenient bus ride away. Many people think its in the South, but (1) hardly anyone has a Southern accent, and (2) the colonel who fights a duel with Homer is called "Southern" by Homer and other characters---i.e. they recognise him as coming from a **different** region & subculture than themselves..
Ahh, you all forget that at the end of 'Behind the Laughter' it was mentioned that the Simpsons were a "North Kentucky family..." I'll take this as canon, though I'm sure most nobody else will.
