The answer is no: the two shows do not film in the same place, even though they are set in the same small town, Edgewater, California. In fact, neither of them even films in the same state the show is set in, or the same country, for that matter.
According to Good Housekeeping,Sheriff Country films in various cities in Ontario, Canada. Sheriff Country is primarily shot in the Greater Toronto area, focusing on the stunning views and landscape that give it a Northern California feel.
The main street area in Edgewater is shot in a small town called Milton, about 25 miles from Toronto. Meanwhile, the exterior shot of Mickey’s house (Morena Baccarin) is from a real-life home in the town of Brampton, 30 minutes outside of Toronto.

Exterior shots are filmed in surrounding areas in Ontario, focused on bringing to life the small-town Northern California vibe featured on Sheriff Country. While many exterior shots are filmed in various parts of Canada, the interior shots are filmed on a soundstage.
That means the inside of the police station, Mickey’s house, and the diner, where the Sheriff’s department gathers, are all shot on a soundstage.
As mentioned above, Fire Country may live in the same universe as Sheriff Country, but they do not film in the same area. Fire Country films in Vancouver, Canada, and surrounding areas, not Toronto.
That means when a cast member from one show is scheduled to appear on the other show, they are traveling for it.
Sheriff Country airs Fridays at 8/7c on CBS.
