The car is usually the preferred transportation option in this part of the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. It is especially convenient to park, and it is a rather short drive to the closest highway, such as I-70, from any home in Bentleyville. Many of the homes for sale in this borough are located in areas that are not very well-suited for pedestrians as running day-to-day errands is difficult without a car. Bentleyville is also not very bike-friendly because the cycling network is not very comprehensive, and there is a significant amount of slopes.
