Nonetheless, homeowners are served by a few bus lines, and it is straightforward to get to a nearby bus stop from most houses. The bicycle is a rather poor method of transportation in Biltmore Park because this neighborhood has somewhat poor cycling infrastructure, and there is a significant amount of hills.
