Here's a breakdown:
* The town of Everwood was fictionalized, but the main street scenes and many exterior shots were filmed in downtown Wilmington. You might recognize places like the historic district, the riverfront, and the Cape Fear River.
* The Everwood High School was actually the old Gregory School, located in Wilmington. This building has also been used in other films like "One Tree Hill."
* Scenes in and around the Brown family's home were filmed in and around Wilmington, as well as in nearby towns like Carolina Beach and Wrightsville Beach.
* Some scenes were also filmed in other parts of North Carolina, like the town of Asheville.
So, while the story of Everwood takes place in a fictional town, the beauty of North Carolina was very much a part of the show's setting.
