In the Halloween film franchise, what is Michael Myers's hometown?

Michael Myers's hometown in the Halloween film franchise is Haddonfield.

Haddonfield is a fictional Illinois suburb created for John Carpenter and Debra Hill's original 1978 film, Halloween. The setting gives the story an ordinary American suburban backdrop, contrasting with the extraordinary violence associated with Michael Myers.

The name was inspired by Haddonfield, New Jersey, the hometown of Halloween co-writer Debra Hill. The fictional Illinois location is not the same place as the real New Jersey borough. Several films use familiar Haddonfield locations, including the Myers house and the local hospital.

Fans sometimes confuse Haddonfield with other fictional horror towns. Springwood belongs to A Nightmare on Elm Street, Woodsboro is associated with Scream, and Derry is Stephen King's setting for It. Haddonfield remains one of the defining locations of the Halloween series.
