Why does is have to be an actual, existing, school? William McKinley, the high school on the show, isn't a real school, it's completely fictional. So are Dalton, Carmel, and all the other schools on the show. Why couldn't the writers have put this completely fictional school in a geographical location that was closer to Lima?

I thought that was the OP's point, but I might have missed it.

[(Anonymous)]

The OP's point as I read it was that the show hadn't done its research--which I agree with, the background research on Glee is crap--and no one would go from Lima to Columbus every day for school. I'm saying a) of course someone would, I can think of several people off the top of my head who did just that, and b) it wouldn't be all that strange to drive to a nearby large city to go to a private high school, given the setting.

There doesn't need to be a real school to base it on (after all, William McKinley isn't anything like Lima Senior, where the locals love their performing arts program and their football team with equal, slightly awkward, abandon) but I'm saying that not only is there no real school to base it on, no one in Lima would EXPECT such a school. People in NW Ohio see Kurt going to school in Columbus, shrug, and mention that it's hell on the car and gas is damned expensive these days. And then they go back to mocking all of the things the show gets wrong.

In this particular point, entirely by accident, the show has gotten it right. It looks weird only from the outside, which is why I find this entire discussion faintly hilarious. (Mind you, the travel times from Westerville to Lima that the show assumes are mind-boggling. It's not THAT fast. But they're certainly faster than the map the OP chose indicates.)
