LPT from a local: Skip this tourist trap and just go to Ohiopyle down the road for natural rock slides. It is, perhaps, my favourite park.

I don't mind unrealistic housing as long as it's not directly referenced. Nothing worse than a character inviting someone into their home saying something like "sorry it's so cramped" and then the shot reveals a living room large enough to fit my entire apartment.
Or grandma, the widowed, retired elementary school teacher, whose deceased husband owned a neighborhood flower shop.
That grandma probably bought the house in 1975 for $50,000.
My house was £52k in 1997. Increased 350% when I bought it in 2023 and we got quite a lot taken off as it needs quite a bit of work. Heating didn't work properly, didn't have cooking facilities, a lot of the plaster isn't actually attached to the walls very well - that one I only fixed the worst patches myself but think I did a reasonable job of it.
That's not unreasonable. Starting a small business is manageable with business loans which you can get from a bank with nothing more than a well written business plan. If the flower shop makes more than the business spends on rent, labor and supplies any normal schmoe can have a neighborhood flower shop.
It's all that tip money.
I find most video games and other media far more unrealistic in that nobody ever needs to go to the bathroom.
Sounds like you don't play Ark: Survival Evolved.
Imagine my surprise when I didn't know stimberries did that too. So much!!
80s had a different definition of being a part time mum to 20 kids
The trope continues though.
