Characteristics
Transportation
Cars are a great transportation option in Buchanan. Finding a parking spot is easy. This part of the Roanoke metropolitan area is not very appropriate for bicycling because there are quite a few hills, and there are few bike lanes. Buchanan is also not very well-suited for people who prefer to travel as pedestrians as very few common errands can be run without needing a car.
Services
Buying one's groceries generally necessitates the use of a vehicle in Buchanan. There are a few choices for those who value restaurants and cafes within a short distance. With regards to education, there are only a very small number of primary schools in this part of the Roanoke metropolitan area and thus they can be a very long pedestrian trip away. In addition, this town does not contain any high schools.
