If The Simpson's Springfield had to exist in a state, which one would it be? I've been wondering what people think about this. Personally, I think it's in Oregon (I'm from there) and I know that a lot of the landmarks in Springfield are based on landmarks around Springfield, Oregon.
1. Springfield, Oregon is a dump, like the Simpson's Springfield
2. The statue of Jebadiah Springfield is based on a statue at U of O in nearby Eugene, Oregon
3. The nuclear powerplant is based on the nuclear power plant up near Longview, Oregon
4. Eugene, a city near Springfield, is just like Shelbyville
5. Most of the characters in the Simpons' names are based on street names in Portland, Oregon (like Lovejoy, Flanders, Simpson, etc.)
Look it up. I believe that the Springfield in the Simpsons is based on Springfield, Oregon and the area around it. Now I'd like to see what you think

Matt Groening, the writer of the Simpsons, become asked a similar question. He reported it wasn't a genuine city. the persons are a pass-component to the american people. The call is in basic terms noted as Springfield because of the fact it rather is the main effortless call for an American city. approximately 3/4 of all the U.S. states have a city noted as Springfield.

There is no specific state that Springfield is in. If you watch the movie, it says that they are bordered by four states that are scattered across the US.

I think that remains a mystery. Of course, in the "Behind the Laughter" episode, one iota of 411 was that The Simpsons are from northern KY.
