Edison? 
Anyways... I know Groening actually had his hometown in Oregon in mind when creating it, but that doesnt mean that's where it is... still, I think that it's probably on the west coast, probably in Oregon or Washington, but not California.
Reasons:
In the navy episode, Homer goes off in a submarine *I believe* from the Springfield docks. He then proceeds to Russia and everyone thinks he's a communist traitor.
In the episode where Lisa climbs into a tree to keep it from being cut down, the tree is quite massive. New York and the East coast tend to have smaller trees, whereas the West coast has redwood forests.
However, it's also possible that the town has actually been moved several times. If you'll recall the episode where Homer allows large cities to deposit their garbage under Springfield, in the end the town becomes a landfill and they simply move all the buildings. It's perfectly possible that this has happened several times.
Anyways. My B-S theories.
