4. there is a springfield ky

but it is on or near the Ohio River, near Evansville IN, as I recall....Springfield IL is on the Sangamon River, and Springfield MO is on the James River.

7. That's My Neck of the Woods

There's no Springfield around here, although there is one in central KY, near Bardstown (no river, though...just a wide spot in the road).

10. thanks for the clarification

I just knew that it was east of where I used to live, and nearer the Ohio than the Mississippi river.

5. It's only on the river right now

When all that snow melts, it'll be in the river.

8. So, what's Springfield's real-life counterpart?

Hickman? Columbus? Wickliffe? Sassafras Ridge?

Sooner or later, Springfield will appear somewhere else.
