I enjoy playing Riverside the most.
From a survival aspect, I find it the easiest to orientate myself as I just head north to the river and I have one less direction that I do not need to worry about.
I can go to the far west and have a fairly isolated grocery store and nearby gas station that is relatively sparce population and can be kept in check.
The town planning is quite open, with the standout being acess to a book store, and makes it easier to be a bit reckless as there is usually enough open spaces to avoid getting boxed in.
It might not have the exciting places like the other locations, but it is plenty if one just wants to try "survive" outside civilisation as one can box themselves a "fishing" box near the river for uninterrupted fishing for quality food, plentiful water that you need to clean to drink, fairly quiet on the outskirts that one can secure with light patrolling.
From exploration side, there is the abadoned town with a factory building on the far west and a bit south, the golf course south of the town and if one is willing to live a bit dangerous there is the town of Ekron to the south as well which as has good loot but is quiet populated to boot
Even the helicopter event feels milder here as well as the flow of migration feels like it has less "hotspots" to pull from.
Probably best enjoyed for a more quiet, less threat lifestyle which I guess can be said for most areas outside the major towns.
