Battle Creek Michigan, is known as "The Cereal City", and is home to Kellogg's and Post.
According to actual residents of Battle Creek, MI, very little if any of the locations shown on this show are located in Battle Creek aside from a few street names and a couple of general location shots in the opening.
In a scene in the first episode, Agent Chamberlain and Detective Agnew are talking to some gang members on a street corner. The street sign reads "E. Emmett St.", which actually exists in Battle Creek, Michigan, where the show is set. The tall building in the background however, is not in Battle Creek.
