Transportation

Property owners who want to live in a compact area will enjoy the rather pedestrian-friendly character of this part of the city; running common errands is convenient without a vehicle. On the other hand, moving around by bicycle is at times difficult in Adobe because there are a limited number of bike lanes, and the terrain is not especially flat. The transit infrastructure in this part of Petaluma is not very convenient. Nonetheless, the neighborhood is connected by around 10 bus lines, and bus stops are not very far away from most houses. In contrast, moving around by car is very easy in Adobe.
