I just figured out which Springfield the Simpsons live in.
Since there's a Springfield in so many states, you could never tell.
Mr. Burns "We want you to smuggle in sugar from south of the border."
Homer "You mean Tennessee?"
The only two states that have Tennessee as a southern border are Kentucky, and Virginia.
Springfield had always had a rivalry with the neighboring city Shelbyville.
There's no Shelbyville in Virginia, but there is one in Kentucky. Shelbyville and Springfield are only an hour apart, so this must be the Shelbyville that is near Springfield.
So, the Simpsons must live in Kentucky because of its southern border being Tennessee, and containing the two near cities Springfield, and Shelbyville.
