The main filming of the series took place in the state of New York and New Jersey in the United States, in the Hudson River Valley. The unwelcoming corporate headquarters was filmed in the town of Kingston, which is located in Ulster County. Various stores in the town of Beacon, with minor cosmetic changes, became the setting for some scenes in the series.

New York
Mark's house
In movie
Scene where Mark (Adam Scott) arrives at his home after work. He lives in a quiet, sparsely populated neighborhood with one-story houses. In the morning, he sets out his recycling bin and notices that a neighbor has put her recycling bin next to it. He indignantly calls her and tells her that she can't do that because she has mixed up the bins
Real
Scene was shot at Village Gate in the Village of Nyack, a suburb of New York City. The village is located on the west bank of the Hudson River and sits in a hilly area. These small townhouses look quite secluded, as if they were created for those who want to live away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
New York
Restaurant
In movie
Scene where Mark is sitting in a restaurant talking on the phone with his neighbor. Suddenly, a stranger sits down and demands to end the conversation immediately. At first he speaks rather incomprehensibly, which alarms the protagonist. And then discourages Mark by telling him that he is his work colleague, which is impossible.
Real
Scene was shot at the retro 1962 Phoenicia Diner in Ulster County. The inconspicuous, secluded roadside diner is a perfect synonym for the life Mark leads. It is as much a bastion of loneliness as the house in which the protagonist lives.
