Where Was Longmire Actually Filmed?

Based on a series of best-selling books by Craig Johnson, Longmire is a modern Western that stars Australian actor Robert Taylor as Walt Longmire, the competent and dedicated sheriff of the fictional Absaroka County in northern Wyoming. The series ran from 2012 until 2017, moving from A&E to Netflix after season 3. It follows the adventures of Walt and his staff, including his deputy Vic Moretti (Katee Sackhoff), as they investigated crimes in Longmire's jurisdiction, mixing in plenty of family and personal drama to build out the story.

But aside from a few scenes, most of the show was filmed in New Mexico, in cities like Sante Fe, Pecos, Los Alamos, and Las Vegas (not the one in Nevada). According to local newspaper The Sante Fe New Mexican, the series filmed interior shots at Garson Studios, which was located on the campus of Sante Fe University Art and Design. Meanwhile, Las Vegas residents will likely recognize locations like The Valles Caldera and downtown Las Vegas plaza, which appear in the series as Longmire's home and workplace.
