The Simpsons are a family who live in a fictional  Middle American  town of Springfield. Homer, the father, works as a safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, a position at odds with his careless, buffoonish personality. He is married to Marge Simpson, a stereotypical American housewife and mother.
But Simpsons creator Matt Groening did solve one of the few remaining mysteries in an interview with Smithsonian magazine: the native of Portland, Ore., revealed that the fictitious Springfield where Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie Simpson live is in fact based on a town not far from where he grew up.
