When I did research for my article "Vägen till Mouseton" ("The Road 
To Mouseton") in NAFS(k)uriren 23 (I think it was), I found two 
different names used by Gottfredson for the town where Mickey lives: 
"Hometown" and "Mouseville" respectively. It also seemed pretty clear 
from various clues and references in the 1930s Gottfredson comics, 
that Mickey's home was somewhere on the Eastern seaboard of the 
United States.

All the best,

/Mattias
