Only, in some ways, the setting isn't very important to the plot. It's not like Person of Interest where New York is basically a character in the story in its own right.
Sleepy Hollow required a small town, some old farmhouses/cabins from the right period and some overgrown countryside. The Wilmington areas has those in spades.
Dino De Laurentis built his film studios in Wilmington, North Carolina to avoid having to deal with the unions and excessive filming costs and they've been filming things there ever since. The giant water tank they've used in action films like the Bond films is located there. The small town of Wilmington has a downtown that passes well for certain parts of New York.
