I live in a car-dependent area, but luckily, there is a park about 20 minutes' bike ride from my house along decently safe routes that's right on the shore of the local lake. The downside is that, since you have to cycle downhill to get there, you have to cycle uphill to get back home. Part of the route to get to this park also goes through a small industrial area, with a bunch of truck entrances and an oil refinery.
