The season featured seven people who lived in a remodeled Civil War-era mansion, called ''The Belfort'', in the Garden District, New Orleans and is the first of two seasons to be filmed in New Orleans. Ten years later, the show made a return in the twenty-fourth season, The Real World: New Orleans (2010). Filming took place over the course of 124 days between January and late May 2000 in the Belfort Mansion on St. Charles Avenue.〔Thompson, Richard.

The mansion was originally built for Alexander C. Hutchinson, who lived there with his wife until his death in 1902. It was later divided into apartments, but was in the process of being returned to a single family residence when producers discovered it. New Orleans based art director Monroe Kelly and architect Lee Ledbetter restored the mansion’s original plan, enabling it to serve as the season's production set.〔("The Belfort Mansion" ).
