Why is the show called South Park

[Alienslayer2406]

If it's always snowing? Usually, places in the south are warm.

North Park was taken.

What about East Park? Or West Park?

EDIT: Or maybe...just Park.

[Xero_Daxter]

What about Linkin Park?

Well.... I'm sure the OP knows but here goes... City divided in north, south, east and west sides, that park would be in the south side of the city even if the city is in the great white north where it snows 10 months in the year.

I feel silly explaining this lol

Yep places in the south are warm. Why they wear shorts and bikinis in antartica.

Maybe it's meant to be ironic because the show itself is full of it.

South Park is in Colorado, which isn't very far north, but the town is at a very high elevation, which is why there is a lot of snow.

South Park is based upon real people's childhood at a real location called South Park, Colorado.

Stan Marsh is made based on Parker himself while Kyle Broflovski is based on Stone himself. The other characters are inspired by childhood friends. Cartman's mother, Liane, is based on co-creator Trey Parker's college fiancee. Then the rest is mostly made up. Kenneth "Kenny" McCormick is one of the fictional characters.

I assume it's like this:

It has everything: Skiing, Biking, Hiking, fishing, hunting, camping, Scenic Beauty, Fresh Air, enerthing the city does not have.

You dont have to sell me. I am from the countryside too. It really is beautiful there in a way few are blessed to see. But I have been depraved of human contact long enough and do not know anyone in the small towns here.

For the same reason I would assume they sometimes put at the beginning of a show or movie that note: " The story, all names, characters, and incidents portrayed in this production are fictitious. No identification with actual persons (living or deceased), places, buildings, and products is intended or should be inferred "

Google says:

"There are no actual town of 'South Park,' Fairplay, a small town 85 miles southwest of Denver, is about as close as it gets. "South Park City," is a museum consisting of 43 historic buildings and structures as well as 60,000 artifacts fashioned after an old mining town from the 1860s to 1890s."

.... probably done because there's actually 34 towns named "Springfield" in the USA that now may or may not want to be associated with The Simpsons...

But that's just my guess...

It really is in Colorado. They have similarities in it to stuff that is really there. Kindof like in Beavis and Butthead there was similarities to stuff in Houston. Plus in the show they always say they are in Colorado and the little flags are like Colorado flags.
