*** From the main page: "While the location of the series' setting, Idaville, is never explicitly given, enough clues exist in the books to identify it as somewhere on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Some hints suggest that it's in the Southeast, and an Onion story spoofing the books put it in Florida. Book 11, Chapter 3 ("The Case of the Skunk Ape") mentions that the Skunk Ape is "Idaville's version of Bigfoot", further suggesting Florida and the Southeast. In another case -- Book 18, Chapter 5 ("The Case of the Rented Canoes") -- thieves hid stolen fishing rods among the mangrove trees. Nearly all mangroves in the USA grow in Florida."

** No. There are stronger hints that it's in Florida than anywhere else.
