When Does "Atypical" Season One (2017) Take Place?

"Atypical" season one is a comedy television series showran by Robia Rashid that premiered August 11th, 2017. So when is "Atypical" season 1 set? 


It takes place roughly in the year: 

2016 AD or 2017 AD 


We know this because at the end of season 1 episode 1 "Antarctica" Sam Gardner says at one of his sessions with Dr. Julia Sasaki, "But, according to the 2010 census (which is the most recent data I could acquire) 49% of marriages end in divorce." The United States of American 2010 Census was completed in December of 2010 AD so it must be after December of 2010 AD. 

More specifically, about a quarter through season 1 episode 4 "A Nice Neutral Smell" a banner is visible at Newtown High School that reads, "BOYS LACROSSE  STATE CHAMPIONS  2006 OWLS 2010 2013 2014 2015", representing previous successful wins for the team and a banner like this probably wouldn't be made until the following year. So it must be after 2015 AD. 

Furthermore, near the end of season 1 episode 2 "A Human Female" when Nick the bartender opens the first aid kit to clean Elsa Gardner's dart wound, a package can be seen with a printed expiration date: "EXP. 03/17" almost certainly representing March of 2017 AD. So it is most likely before March of 2017 AD.
