This part of the city is particularly car friendly. Parking is generally easy, and many properties for sale are a very short drive from the closest highway. However, traveling by transit can be very hard in Brookstone due to the infrequent service. Nevertheless, homeowners are served by a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far from most properties. Brookstone is not very suitable for those who prefer to travel as pedestrians as running daily errands is impractical without needing to use a vehicle. The bicycle is a fairly poor method of transportation in Brookstone because the topography is not particularly flat, and the cycling infrastructure is quite bad.
