The show ended up changing locations due to anti-LGBTQ legislation dating back to 2016's House Bill 2.
In an interview with a media portal, co-creator Jonas Pate told them that when they scripted the series, they were sure about shooting it in Wilmington. Further, Jonas added to the statements that Netflix executives made the right decision to insist on inclusivity and they all agreed with them completely.
Talking about the shooting location, Jonas Pate told a media portal that since they were creating a fictional town, it was easier for them to recreate visual landscapes the way they wanted. He further said that Charleston is beautiful but it is a rapidly growing city, so they had to cherry-pick pieces of it. The show makers took those narrow snapshots and pieced them together to create the fictional world they portrayed on the screen.
