Where its source is set

Wikidata records no setting for this game. Every place below is where its source, Silent Hill, is recorded as set. That is a statement about the book, not about the game, and an adaptation is free to move its story somewhere else entirely. It is listed because it is sourced and checkable, and labelled everywhere it appears because it is a step weaker than the rest of this atlas.

Drawn from these real places

Nothing was filmed at these and the story does not happen in them. They are the real places this game’s setting was modelled on, named in its Japanese Wikipedia article. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, so it is listed apart from everything above and never counted as a filming location.
