At last, Matt Groening has appear area The Simpsons is in fact located: the absolute Springfield is next to Eugene, Oregon, the accompaniment area Groening grew up. We went through the absolute city-limits to acquisition what the a lot of important locations attending in absolute life.
Talking to Smithsonian Magazine's Claudia de la Roca, Groening assuredly confessed:
Springfield was called afterwards Springfield, Oregon. The alone acumen is that if I was a kid, the TV appearance "Father Knows Best" took abode in the boondocks of Springfield, and I was captivated because I absurd that it was the boondocks next to Portland, my hometown. If I grew up, I accomplished it was just a apocryphal name.
I aswell ample out that Springfield was one of the a lot of accepted names for a city-limits in the U.S. In apprehension of the success of the show, I thought, "This will be cool; anybody will anticipate it's their Springfield." And they do.
Take a attending at what some of the locations in the alternation absolutely attending like in absolute Springfield. Some of them are similar. Others don't allotment any similarities at all, like the Boondocks Hall.
Where's Apu?
Definitely as very shitty as the absolute Moe's.
Big Burger = Krusty's?
Elementary school.
The contest grounds.
First Church.
City Hall is a 70s or 80s blunder that doesn't attending at all like The Simpsons'.
The adjacent lake.
A archetypal abode in Springfield.
Sports cards shop.
Public library.
On the absolute side, there's no adjacent nuclear ability plant. But this affectionate of looks like the area for the one in the series.
I accept to say that Springfield, Oregon, doesn't assume as absorbing as the animation Springfield. Especially if you're watching The Simpsons lying down on a comfortable sofa, administration a Pepsi with a admirable babe and two cats.
Update: People, I apperceive that the barrio don't attending the same. I said this in the article. We are not claiming that these barrio were the abject for the absolute locations. This is just a attending at the locations of the city-limits whose name aggressive Groening for The Simpsons.
