Solutions for sustainable living in reduced gravity environment

I am building an idea for a terraformed environment with 1/6 the gravity of Earth, with a permanent human colony that has been established and sustained for 40+ years. I have thrown around a few ideas as to how these colonists might live there with the lowered gravity, but have not come to any satisfying conclusions.

I would like to imagine they could walk, rather than hop along the ground. But I want to avoid a typical science-fiction scenario where the surface has some "gravity generator." The colony is taking advantage of the benefits of low-gravity with mining, building, etc. Yet they daily life of a human should be similar to ours on Earth.

Any ideas are welcome! Thank you!

[EDIT] I realize this question was too broad, sorry! I am imagining a version of our Earth's moon that has been successfully terraformed with an atmosphere, flora and fauna (the fauna being engineered), etc. I am trying to think of ways for humans to live out their lives in a city on this version of our moon without being genetically engineered themselves.
