Where was Jane Eyre set?

Answer 1

England, the United Kingdom. She is a sort of nanny or aide de-estate to coin a title on the large estate of Mr. Rochester. Rochester starts out as a kind of heavy character ( he was played by Orson Welles in one film version) but mellows as the plot develops. It has its overtones of mystery and suspense. It was one of the first novels, as distinct from Fairy Tales and fantasies to have a strong woman female lead character.
