You don't? Anime and American animation have different distinct characteristics.
2 :
You must live in Japan to make anime because Anime is Japanese cartoon. Hence the word Japan...it wouldn't be called anime if it was American cartoon. The art styles between American and Japanese are totally different.
3 :
American animation has more guidelines .

anime is named that because it originates in Japan so I imagine that you should live in Japan. But there are also anime style. You don't have to be from Japan or live in Japan to make anime style. But for it to be anime I'm sure you have to be in Japan. I'm sorry I don't make any sense. Even I realize this.

The term anime means japanese animation therfore its animation from japan. If you make it hear its not from japan. It would make no sense and contradict the whole statement. You could however make something like Avatar the last airbender which is from america but has all the traits of anime like character development. A plot that follows the whole series . Amazing animation thats semi realistic but certain features are overemphasized . The difference between cartoons and anime is that anime takes more time to make usually working nonstop all week for one episode with no break then move on to the next . Usually more story driven more emphasis on the characters feeling real having lives and a backstory. Usually more episodes and more mature usually for teens and adults Cartoons require less talent are easier to make and let you get lots of days off. Easier characters colorful kiddy . No real plot generally just episodes and the next episode is completely different ( spongebob , family guy , simpsons , american dad , futurama , southpark - are examples )

Anime is the given name to Japanese animation in the western world if you talk with someone from japan they would tell you that they also like western anime like disney and stuff. So you could make an animation and it would be difficult to be considered as "anime" by the whole world, maybe if you buy the license to a manga and animate it in the us may still be considered anime and about the differenca, i would say most of them lie in the story telling style and the characters,
