Mechanicsburg is a large suburban area of Harrisburg, PA. The borough is stocked full of 19th and early 20th century rowhouses and has some lovely Victorian neighborhoods. The townships surrounding Mechanicsburg (Hampden, Silver Spring, Upper Allen, Monroe) all for the most part carry a Mechanicsburg address but they are more suburban and in some cases rural. The public transportation for the Harrisburg area is run by Capital Area Transit and they have two bus routes through Mechanicsburg. One goes down Main street through the borough then onto Harrisburg, and another travels along the Carlisle Pike (a major thoroughfare) north of the borough and onto Carlisle to the west and Harrisburg to the east. Mechanicsburg is very well served by grocery stores with a Giant supermarket in the borough as well as two Giants in the surrounding areas. There is also a large Wegmans just north of the borough along the Carlisle Pike.

The nearest airport is Harrisburg International Airport.

Yeh this guy is pretty spot on with his info. The whole area is pretty built up so it's highly unlikely you aren't going to be able to find something you need.
