I seem to remember that there is a city in the US named Hell, but I can't rememer which state it's in. I mean a city (town or other postal address), not a name of a building, ski slope, or other non-postal place. (A zip code would be nice.)

Hell, Michigan - The Town of Hell

In May is the "Hell Buzzard Fest" with music, food and art show. Nearby state park with camping. [Jim Fraties, 08/22/2001]

I found one:
The History of Hell Michigan
Hell was first settled in 1838 by George Reeves and his family. George had a wife and 7 daughters – no reason to call it Hell yet… George built a mill and a general store on the banks of a river that is now known as Hell Creek...
The mill would grind the local farmers grain into flour; George also ran a whiskey still, so a lot of times the first 7-10 bushels of grain became moonshine.
In turn, horses would come home without riders, wagons without drivers….someone would say to the wife, where is your husband?
She’d shrug her shoulders, throw up her arms and exclaim, Ahh, he’s gone to Hell!”
In 1841 when the State of Michigan came by, and asked George what he wanted to name his town, he replied, “Call it Hell for all I care, everyone else does.” So the official date of becoming Hell was October 13, 1841...

"Hell" is a little tourist trap place (that I want to see some day. I'm a sucker for tourist trap places!) located in Michigan. It is actually listed as Pinckney, MI. You can type it into the computer and see the place.

There is also one in Norway (and the subject of many a joke regarding 'when Hell freezes over')
