Gravity Falls, Oregon

Gravity Falls, Oregon is a mysterious, sleepy, small town in Roadkill County of eastern Oregon, where there are many supernatural occurrences. It was founded by Quentin Trembley, but in a attempt to cover it up was said to be founded by Nathaniel Northwest. It's where Stan Pines lives and runs the Mystery Shack, a tourist trap which overcharges unlucky visitors for a glimpse at the world's most bizarre museum. Twin siblings Dipper and Mabel Pines are sent to stay with Stan for the summer, which leads them to discover the different yet curious wonders of Gravity Falls.

Gravity Falls, Oregon may be based off of the Oregon Vortex, which is located in Oregon, and residents claim paranormal activity occurs there. It is also based off Boring, Oregon, a town Alex never saw himself, but always imagined what it might be like.

History
Gravity Falls was founded in 1842 by 8½th president of the United States of America, Quentin Trembley. He "discovered" it by falling off a cliff on a horse that he was riding backwards. However, this fact was covered up by the U.S. government, and instead "local nobody" Nathaniel Northwest was officially recorded as the town founder.

The valley of Gravity Falls was actually formed by an alien spaceship crash-landing on Earth millions of years prior to the start of the series, as stated by Stanford Pines in the episode Dipper and Mabel vs. the Future.
