Michael's area code is 717 which is located in Eastern Pennsylvania. However if you look closely at the letters that he sorts through and finds the Brainscan package, the state that he lives in is actually New Jersey.
According to Michael's address, he lives in New Jersey but when he discovers the severed foot in his freezer, one of the products shown is a TV dinner with text on it that reads "Savarin MicroToast" and "Poulet Frit" in English and French, marking it as an item sold exclusively in Canada.
