Characteristics

Transportation

Driving is an excellent means of transportation in Bethlehem. Finding a place to park is generally easy, and the majority of properties for sale are a short drive from the closest highway, such as I-470. Bethlehem is not very appropriate for bicycling because there are quite a few hills, and the bicycling network is not very comprehensive. This part of the Wheeling metropolitan area is also not very suitable for people who prefer to get around as pedestrians as most daily needs are impractical to carry out without a car.

Services

Locals will welcome that wherever their home is located in Bethlehem, primary schools are close by. On the other hand, high schools are not abundant and thus not always within a short distance. Besides public schools, there are private elementary and secondary schools. As far as eating is concerned, in all but a few cases, a car is needed to do groceries. A limited variety of restaurants is available in this village as well.

Character

Bethlehem is a village to buy a house in for those who prefer a chill environment. Due to the presence of very few pedestrians, Bethlehem is relatively calm.
