The family consists of:
* Ned Flanders: The overly friendly and devoutly religious patriarch of the family.
* Maude Flanders: Ned's deceased wife who was known for her patience and optimism.
* Rod Flanders: Ned and Maude's son, often the victim of pranks from Bart Simpson.
* Todd Flanders: Ned and Maude's son, a young and innocent child.
While the Flanders are often portrayed as being conservative, they are not hillbillies. They are a middle-class suburban family who live in the same neighborhood as the Simpsons.
