Here's a game for fun. Can you guess which cities I based this map on?
Disclaimer: locating where cities are in the DCU is, at best, an inexact science.

I wonder if you're going with Smallville MD like used to be a thing (I think). Honestly it makes more sense than Kansas, since Metropolis is immovably on the Atlantic seaboard and Smallville is at least sometimes depicted as closer to Metropolis than to any other large city.
You've got Kansas and Missouri to cover Central City and Keystone City, stand-ins for the Kansas Cities. Though my headcanon is still that Central City is Detroit Michigan and Keystone City is Windsor Ontario. Yes, that would make Jay a Canadian, which just about makes sense since he's basically wearing a Mountie's serge. Would also explain why two speedsters in bordering cities generally don't have overlapping adventures when their defining trait is not being geographically limited.
Clark and Bruce are in New Jersey; Hal's in California; Ollie's in either Seattle or Star City but they're both in Washington. John could be in Denver CO or Apex City FL, depending. Wonder Woman would probably be in DC.
Doctor Fate is in Salem MA. Impulse and Max Mercury were in Alabama, though that was like 30 years ago in better times.

Over at Marvel, Rocket Racer is based in NYC.
