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. Ever wonder where Mr. Burns lives, or exactly where the Simpsons' house is? (It's in Pressboard Estates, naturally!) Stop by Miss Tillingham's School for Snooty Girls and Mama's Boys on your way to Professor V.J. Cornucopia's Fantastic Foodmagorium and Great American Steakery. Mmmmm, steak!
