Right you are. We have fiber optic cable in the Last Chance General Store and horse-drawn carriages in TBB. The whole thing is a mash of time and place, giving us a King of Arizona and a Duchess of Winnipeg. Welcome to Delirium, here's your rose-colored glasses through which nothing looks any rosier.

Here's my two cents:
Lemony Snicket doesn't want to be tied down to the cultures, beliefs, practices or traditions of any one region, and the same with the time era. He has colleagues & friends that existed in real life from Shakespeare to Alice and Wonderland and Frost.
I love it like this and wouldn't have it any other way, but if I had to tie the Baudelaires to one region, and one time period I would say somewhere in Western Europe, in the 1920's or 1930's.
