Located just 12 miles east of Harrisburg and 8 miles north of Hershey, Skyline View residents have quick commutes to the capital city's government offices and popular attractions like Hersheypark and Hersheypark Stadium. “It’s a nice little area and a great little neighborhood,” says Fred Lynn, West Hanover Township resident and Realtor at Remax Realty Professionals. “People live here because it’s more rural, but still close to the city of Harrisburg, an hour and a half from Baltimore and two and a half from New York City. The location is awesome.”

State game lands in the mountains and Skyline Commons Park
