Bailley
Bailley is the main setting of Glitch Techs, and the current home of Five and Miko. It’s also the place where they work for the local Hinobi Technology store, one of the Glitch Techs Headquarters which is operated by Phil Altiere.
Geography
Bailley is a remote suburban town, surrounded by mountains and pine trees and near a sea or ocean.
It is likely located in the northwestern United States in either Oregon or Washington State, given its surrounding landscape and the fact that many gaming and tech companies, such as Microsoft, Nintendo and Valve, are located in that area in real life.
