Moving on to real world locations, while the climax to the film is set in Ohio, the home of Buffalo Bill can actually be found in the rural town of Perryopolis, Pennsylvania. You can follow the Youghiogheny River up to the railroad tracks (which are in active use), into a head-on view of the famous house where Clarice Starling faced off with Buffalo Bill.
LOCATION: 8 Circle St, Perryopolis, PA 15473
Just across the tracks, you can still see the same RV that was seen in the establishing shot of the house.
