Characteristics

Transportation

Cars are an excellent transportation option in this area. It is a rather short drive to the closest highway, such as I-275, from anywhere in Ash, and parking is quite easy. Ash is not very well-suited for pedestrians as very few daily errands can be run without a car. The bike is a rather limited mode of transportation in this township since the cycling network is not very extensive. Thankfully, cyclists do not encounter significant slopes.

Services

It can be very hard to get to high schools and primary schools as a pedestrian from properties for sale in this area. Along with public schools, there are private elementary and secondary schools. With regards to eating, in vast majority cases, a vehicle is required in this area to reach the nearest supermarket. A limited number of restaurants can be found in Ash as well.

Character

The character of Ash is exemplified by its calm atmosphere. Ash is quiet overall, as noise from the streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue - however some areas can be quite noisy, especially near one of the railway lines, one of the 2 airports (Buzzwick,Carls) or I-275. Parks are sparse, making it very difficult to reach them. Still, there are approximately 10 green spaces nearby for residents to explore, including Ash Carleton Park and Oakwoods Metropark.
