no in the ninth season in "Bart Star" hank hill is briefly seen and he says "We drove 2000 miles for this?"
so Springfield has to be about 2000 miles from Arlen, Texas

and i dont know why some are people saying it says Springfield, IL on the letter in the one where bart gives blood. the state abbreviation is illegible(it looks like a backwords c then a t)
i took a very clear screenshot i will email it to anyone if they want

i hope this helps

the simpsons live in texas bacause in northern texas there is a power plant it also snows and theres two towns on the side of each other called springfield and shelbyville matt groening is messing with your minds. think about it. you wouldnt really expect for the simpsons to live in the southern part of the united states. but its true. go to simpsons facts.com if you dont believe me.
