Errors in geography:
The movie is supposedly set in Ohio. The telephone area code (818) for the rental office of Josh's now vacant apartment is actually for the San Fernando Valley, California (and surrounding areas.) Furthermore, Zeigler's Columbus Zip Code should be 43201 (not the made-up 41273) and 7th Ave street numbers only go as high as the 3600's (not 13124). Plus the actual street is not full of multi-storied apartment buildings designed in the Eastern Bloc brutalist architectural style. Dexter's Weymouth Dr. street address (from his bounced check) is fictitious, but its Zip Code (44101) is indeed in Cleveland.
