Characteristics
Transportation
Alma is very car friendly. It is very easy to park. Alma is not especially appropriate for bicycling since the topography is not particularly flat, and there are a limited number of bike lanes. Alma is also not very well-suited for people who like to get around as pedestrians as most daily needs are at times difficult to meet without a car.
Services
Primary schools are straightforward to reach without a car from anywhere in Alma. On the other hand, high schools are not numerous and therefore not always within a short distance. Residents have the choice between public and private elementary schools. Regarding food, it is sometimes possible for property owners in Alma to do their grocery shopping without a car. Nevertheless, reaching the closest pharmacy and therefore some staple foods is usually convenient. A limited selection of restaurants and cafes can be found as well.
Character
Alma offers a slower-paced atmosphere. Alma is very good for those who like quiet surroundings, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamor.
