Do you have a backstory to your Springfield?

I don't know if I'd call it a "back story," but somewhere down the line I noticed my Springfield was starting to look somewhat like the city I live in. :P Like, I put Hibbert's office right across the street from my elementary school, which is exactly where my doctor is in real life. :P

I've done a few things like that. I surrounded the elementary school playground with the squidport fences, because they look like the fences around my elementary school. I put a plum tree by the stonecutters day care center because my day care had plums growing next to it. I put the gilded truffle by the mountains because a lot of fancy restaurants here are in the mountains. Libraries here also tend to have parks attached to them, so my library is in my park.
