I heard somewhere that interstates with odd numbers such as I-95 run north to south while even numbers such as I-80 run east to west, not sure if that helps anything, but when you think of highways and where they may lead it should help
I'm not going to say I've got an answer, as I don't think anyone should. But I'm throwing my vote in there for "it's a fictional place". I want to believe Springfield is in Ohio, my homestate, but see too many clues that say it is elsewhere. Largest clue I ever saw was while leaving Springfield to go on a trip the Simpsons turned onto I-95. There is a possibility that in the 3 seconds from leaving Springfield to when the turned onto I-95 they actually travelled across the country from Oregon to the East Coast, but I doubt this is true. But some people are correct with some lesser clues leading elsewhere. This is why my two top choices for location are the following. Sorry there is no definite answer.
1) Fictional Place
2) Easton Coast somewhere
