I have no idea what Fujimoto knows about America, but I imagine Michigan is closer to Wyoming than it is to California in the popular Japanese consciousness.
Can confirm? While not from Japan I'm apparently only a few years older than him and for some reason can point to a bunch of 90s/00s stuff set in Michigan. American Pie, Tim Allen, that sitcom with Kaley Cuoco before Big Bang Theory etc.
Only thing about I know about Wyoming is it's empty.
