There are a lot of towns called Springfield in the U.S., but only one is the Springfield: the fictional one where "The Simpsons" live. There are a lot of great cultural references in the animated TV series, and two California State Polytechnic (Pomona) students have fit the geographical ones onto a map as consistently as possible for a fictional place.
