Hi, I don't know if this question has been answered, but is the fictional town of Springfield in Kentucky. On the map I notice a town called Simpsonville and Shelbyville is just east of Simpsonville. These towns are located between Louisville and Frankfort. So is Springfield Simpsonville?

No, it's Libertyville. Where everything costs $17.76.

Well, we don't have a Libertyville, but we do have 4 'Liberty's: http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?searchtype=address&country=US&addtohistory=&searchtab=home&address=&city=liberty&state=KY&zipcode=

Of course, we all know the "Simpons" are actually characters PLAYED BY cartoon actors of the same name(s). Those actors are from northern Kentucky.

What are you making fun of here? I am trying to remember it. In some movie, or Three Stooges skit, there is a line "Well, we don't have <blah blah>, but we do have <some other blah blah>. I was thinking of the "I'm not insane, but I'll be quirky" line from OFF. I was also thinking of the scene in the old TV show Chips, where the comedian is on stage and says: "We don't have any black washing machines, but we do have some black agitators". But, it was somewhere else too. But where? WHERE?

I wasn't meaning to to a take-off of anything, actually. But your examples brought a smile :)

You would think that if they all were in Kentucky, that they would have Kentucky accents, right?

Many of the people sound like they are from the New York City area...

Wasn't Smithers black in one episode?
