It's supposed to be somewhere in the midwest. I don't think we actually know what state they're in. All I know is that sometimes there is a beach next to a lake and once Shawn took his dad's boat out in the open sea and lost it in a typhoon. Also, it is a relatively short drive to Canada.

I'm going to guess Oregon because there is a Salem, Oregon.

I read an article a couple of months back that said that the producer's of the show will not say exactly where Salem is. They said that enjoy it when people in all the cities called Salem, claim DOOL for their own towns.

Salem (Like many other fictional sops towns) is supposedly located in the Midwest. It's presumed to be somewhat near Chicago since people go back & forth & Indianapolis too. It could be in Illinois, Iowa, Indiana or Wisconsin for all we know but it's no more real that Shermer Illinois. Lol.
IDK y the hell some dumbell gave me thumbs down when I told the truth!

I don't think they have ever disclosed the state, but I don't think the Salem represented in the show is meant to be either one of the real cities, but rather a smaller one just named Salem.

Well according to the 30th anniversary family album, they're in the midwest. Everything about the storylines on the show completely contradict this. They have beaches, they have "seas" .....short drive up to canada at one point..... I've always felt that they portrayed Salem as being in the Northeast...

Salem IL would be the closest guess though I don't think it is supposed to be any specific place. There are 48 Salems in the US and I think the writers intentionally keep it vague.

I don't think we are really supposed to know where it is. However, when they did the whole lonley splicer thing with Chelasea and Nick on MySpace her MySpace account said Salem, California.
If you look closely on mail and addresses on the show all it says is Salem, USA. I believe that the show would like us to believe it is a small midwest town.

It's a fictional town Salem that's not too far from Chicago, IL

It's unknown. Just like any other show, they don't want us to know! It's most likely Salem, Illinois, though, given that they go to Chicago do much.
