Characteristics

Transportation

Alpine is particularly car friendly. Most of the street infrastructure is built for driving, and it is very convenient to find a parking spot. Most homes for sale in this community are located in places that are not very suitable for pedestrians because almost no daily needs can be met without a vehicle. It is also very difficult to commute by bike in this part of the Corvallis metropolitan area because there is a considerable amount of hills, and Alpine has quite bad cycling infrastructure.
