How is Harrisburg for outdoor activities?

First post here. I'm a 51-year-old teacher and Median household income is $74,006, which feels about average for the area. The median home value here is around $304,100, which seems about average. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that. Any advice would be great.

Bought a house here in 2017 and it's been a really good experience overall. Property values have gone down slightly since then.

Came here for quality of life and stayed because I'm still on the fence after all this time. The housing market is honestly tough and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Public transit is solid here. You'll probably need a car for most things. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else right now.
