The Simpsons takes place in Oregon I think. Not Missouri. Those are two completely different cultures.
They intentionally don't have where it is, but Matt Groening grew up in Springfield, OR and said it's based on that. The movie said the sates that border it - states nowhere near each other. Some things are obvious though - it has a port, it's temperate, etc...

Also for us Neanderthales, who never land on Moon, its Missouri and Oregon almost the same.
You have no idea how wrong you are. :LOL:

And "Springfield" was chosen for The Simpsons because most US states have a city/town named "Springfield" - it's kind of the "Main Street" of city names.

I've never been to these countries, so I couldn't "experience" them. Of course I have some superficial information. It's the same as people from the USA have only superficial information about Asia, or about Europe. How many of you know without a hint what the difference is between Austria and Germany? Or how many provinces does China have?

And I know Springield, it's one of the most common names in the USA.

I built a local mechanic's shop.

NOTE - If you're in the South and need a mechanic for some reason or another the shop that looks likes this is the best mechanic in town. The race car shows he isn't only a mechanic for money but also as a hobby which means he's lives and breathes cars. The rotting tires shows he doesn't recycle and probably loads them in the back of his truck and drops them off in an abandoned lot somewhere saving you money on recycling fees. Be capful of misquotes though. LOL! 1.png
