Bikini Bottom

Bikini Bottom, which has historically gone by the names of "Bikini Gulch" (before and after Dead Eye Gulch), "Dead Eye Gulch" and "Bikini Bottomshire," is the main setting in the SpongeBob SquarePants series. As shown in the episode "What Ever Happened to SpongeBob?" the city has a proper population of about 538, though many episodes tend to portray it to be much larger. It consists of various businesses, including restaurants, stores, and manufacturers.
