According to Twitter user Nagakomi, the school where School-Live! takes place is located between Negishi and Yokohama in Kanagawa prefecture. Specifically, the coordinates N35.419,E139.645, as shown in a chapter of the manga. The chapter even shows a map location to point out the school's exact position.

Another Tweet compares the nearby location of Yokohama Midorigaoka High School to School-Live!'s own setting. The two facilities share striking similarities.
がっこうぐらし!聖地
巡ヶ丘市→横浜市根岸付近
巡ヶ丘→緑ヶ丘
巡ヶ丘学院高等学校→根岸町付近
聖イシドロス大学→聖光学院中高
ランダルコーポレーション→仲尾台中学校
ED→根岸湾

Nagakomi suggests that the school in the manga is based on Midorigaoka High School, St. Isidore's University is based on Seiko Gakuin Middle & High School, and the Randall Corporation is based on Nakaodai Junior High School.
Fans were just as quick to identify Numazu, Shizuoka Prefecture in the promo image for the "Love Live! Sunshine!!" project and the real New York City locations for the Love Live! movie.
