There are only two places on earth where that would technically be true
the North Pole and the South Pole.
And even then, on the equinoxes, the sun is split by the horizon for a couple of days, so you don't get a full six months of darkness.
As you move away from the poles, the number of days you spend in 24 hours of sunlight 24 hours of night, decreases. By the time you get as far south as the arctic circle, people only see a day or two without a sunrise or sunset. South of the arctic circle, the sun rises and sets every day, if even only briefly, during certain seasons.
The northernmost inhabited places on earth might spend as much as three months with no sunrise and three months with no sunset. Not six.
There are some islands in northern Canada, the north end of Greenland, some islands north of Norway, and some islands north of Russia, where they would see three or more months of continual day or night.
