I currently reside in a small historic town in Texas. It still has some old buildings on main street. Last summer, a production company came to town and blocked off the four downtown blocks and dressed it up to do the exteriors for this season's 1923 show on Paramount. I don't think that Harrison Ford was in attendance tho.

The town name is Bartlett, and it has been the site for many exterior shots for many movies over the years. They shot some exteriors for Revolution here and if you look on street view, you can see the movie sets set up there.
