Where was this set?


What city does this movie take place in? I read it was shot in New Mexico, was it set there also? (Sorry, maybe I missed it, or maybe I'm too lazy to look it up). I'm assuming it's some smaller town - because it's a big deal that one of their peers moved to NYC. My point being - if it's supposed to be set "Anytown, USA", that kind of detaches it from its own reality, and diminishes its themes.

I was wondering the same thing. The license plates on the cars looked like it had some yellow on it, So i thought it was supposed to be set in NJ (where i'm from) or PA. PA has some yellow at the bottom of their plates.
I've never been to NM but i thought the outside scenes had a "city look" More so than what i would have thought NM looks like

You don't think they have cities in NM?

I know nothing about NM all i've ever seen are adobe looking buildings and cacti in pictures. I'm stereotyping what i think of NM.

What i should have said was,, In the movie, The outside scenes had more of an "urban look" Something i didn't associate with NM. Obviously i was wrong.

Yeah at least the downtown areas of Albuquerque look very modern just like any other downtown you might see. That being said, while it was filmed there I don't know if they ever said that's where it was supposed to be set
