That's a great question! "A Christmas Story" was actually filmed in Cleveland, Ohio. The house used in the movie was located on Euclid Avenue in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood. It was a real neighborhood, and the film crew wanted to capture the authenticity of the setting. They worked closely with the residents to recreate the time period and capture the essence of the neighborhood. The house is now a museum and is open to the public, so you can visit and take a tour!
