I moved to the Harrisburg, PA area in March '95, wound up in a farmhouse converted to apartments later that year (about a mile from Three Mile Island nuke power plant) then bought a house in Steelton (cheek-by-jowl with Harrisburg's southern border) in July 2000. Been here since.
Local assets: Three Mile Island; The Harrisburg solid-waste generation plant, Harrisburg Int'l Airport/PA Air National Guard tanker and ELINT/PSYOPS squadrons; Ames/True Temper handtool factory; Mechanicsburg Naval Parts Depot; 28th Division PA National Guard HQ, New Cumberland Army Depot, Ft Indiantown Gap PAARNG Training Center; a quiescent Bethlehem Steel plant, several State-operated fish hatcheries; field office for FBI/State Dept; PA State Police HQ and Training Academy; Hershey Foods, Hershey Park (which has large subterranean chambers for maintenance and supplies for the park); the Enola railroad yards; large numbers of trucking company depots; warehouses for numerous big-box and DIY stores; PennDOT road equipment and road-contruction materials lots; numerous hospitals, Dept of Agriculture labs, Rite Aid Pharmacy HQ and major warehouse; Harrisburg Farm Show Complex which could be converted to house refugees. And 40 miles down the road, Letterkenney Army Depot. All surrounded by thousand of acres of excellent farmland and numerous eatth-wise Amish/Mennonite farmers for whom no electricity would mean very little. Not yoo bad a place, if defense could be mounted, marauders aggressively hunted, and refugees be assigned to work that utilizes their skills effectively, and _everybody_ helps raise food or build fortifications.
