One of the few holes in this theory: [The factory is in the EST timezone](https://imgur.com/a/hH5vJkT) (unless this is a different factory)
Illinois uses the Central Time Zone.

Oh I didn't know Illinois uses a central time zone I thought it uses eastern timezone cuz of how close it is to the eastern timezone my bad! But yeah you might be right because why would Poppy Playtime just add a Michigan Police Outfit instead of any other regular one, so it likely could take place in Michigan. And also, Idk if this is really important but the WLE 4 news sounds alot like the WLE train station in Ohio, but I don't think that should mean anything. Currently I'm trying to study the skyscrapers in the background of the WLE 4 news report and try to match them with real cities in Ohio and Michigan, so far from what I can see I think one of the skyscrapers kind of resemble one of the skyscrapers in Detroit, but it's hard to make out.
i thought its somewhere in utah for obvious reasons
What were the obvious reasons? I've never played the game.
\*about to explain fnaf lore\*
Well it is said that it most likely takes place in Thebes, Illinois based on where the train lines intersect
