It's R*, it isn't NY it's Liberty City. III-era one. He's probably from Portland. :)

Portland, Maine ?  Nawwww....

As for Ocean access....They do have docks in Blue Skies, and have shipping....So they have to have more than just a little river, has to be something they can navigate with some kinda ships or at least a barge.....

 I love Portland, Maine! Anyways, from the looks of it, Bullworth seems to be located in Rhode Island.  If not, probably New Hampshire. It's always possible that Jimmy could be from NY, or maybe even Fairfield Co. Conn.

I think he's not from New England, I mean he refers to Bullsworth as one of the worst schools in the country, It seems like it's one of the biggest schools in New England. Since he's been expelled to many schools, it seems like if he lived in New England Bullsworth would be one of the first schools he went to, but he lived near the new englang area like in the middle states, because his mom and old guy were able to drive him.

Ole Dyl brings up a good point. While I doubt that with 61 students (+ 4 Prefects) that Bullworth is the 'Biggest School in New England', it does seem sensible that Jimmy would have to be within, say a 6-hour (or 300 Mile) radius of Bullworth in order to be driven there by the new 'old stepfather' and his mother.

Perhaps, South Jersey ? No accent there, is there ?

Portland is the industrial, Mafia-controlled island in Liberty City in GTA III. It's the poorest neighborhood there. I didn't mean the Portland in Maine, or wherever else.

Excusa me....I thought the point was to pinpoint a real location rather than an imaginary one.

If imaginary, then Portland / Liberty City would seem to be a good guess.

Honestly? Jersey is fucking weird. Not everyone has that obnoxious accent. Some do, some don't. I don't.

Same goes for New York. Some have it, some don't. Some have it slightly, even.

I want to say he's from Staten Island, tho'. I saw a Hopkins Ave up there yesterday. :P

 There's a Hopkins street in the city of Leominster, thats about 15 minutes away.  My sister saw that a few years ago and she was like "Hey look, Hopkins street!" :)

 How could I forget!  There's a town nearby called "Hopkinton".  All you need is an s in there though.

I figured it out, he's from Bullsworth because there's no way in or out!

I was gonna say that!!! But if you notice in the cut scene before "Welcome to Bullworth" you will see that they are driving in from the West side of Bullworth so I think either the came West and the Carnival wasn't there yet. But the could have also came from the north and went right through Bullworth Vale and taken that road to the academy which doesnt make much sense because there isn't an entrance to Bullworth on the west and if they came from the north why wouldn't they just cut right through Bullworth town. So if he came from another state or city he probably came from either the north or the west.

Why would the carnival block the only entrance to town that's the worst placement ever, I guess it would get more people to come to the carnival if someone trys to leave town and find a carnival in the way.
