Though, honestly, I could see some arguments for the show taking place in the 90s (mainly in the fact that today, most kids don't use cassettes or VHSs.  I do, but I was a 90s kid and still have my old VHS tapes, but I don't know any 12 year olds that still use 'em). Grunkle Stan might not have DVDs/newer modern technology. I know for a fact, my grandma still watches most of her movies using vhs. Like I said, I still have my old VHS tapes, and even use my VHS player as a DVR. But it's more of the fact that Mabel had a VHS that got me thinking. Either way, it's totally in the 2010s (in the last episode, there was something in the article about leg warmers being cool, which was an 80s thing.  Assuming that was 30 years ago, it adds up).
