Characteristics

Transportation

Braewood Hills is very car friendly. Coming across a parking spot is easy. In contrast, getting around by transit can be very hard in this area due to the infrequent service. Thankfully, the neighborhood is linked by a few bus lines, and bus stops are commonly relatively close by. Even though there is a reasonably high density of cyclists, the bicycle is a somewhat poor means of transportation in Braewood Hills because riding is rendered arduous by the typically sloping area, and there are few bike lanes. A majority of the homes for sale in this neighborhood are located in areas that are also not very conducive to pedestrians since very few day-to-day errands can be run without needing a car.
