Characteristics

Transportation

Driving is a very good medium of transportation in Burlington Road. It is convenient to park, and it is a short car ride to the closest highway, such as I-80, from any home in this area. However, this part of Omaha is not very transit friendly. Nevertheless, the neighborhood is linked by a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far-removed from most homes. This area is not especially bike-friendly because riding is rendered strenuous by the often steep terrain, and the bicycling infrastructure is somewhat poor. This part of the city is also not especially conducive to those who travel as pedestrians because running daily errands is sometimes difficult without needing a car.

Services

It is convenient to access the nearest grocery store without a car in Burlington Road. Moreover, those who like to dine in restaurants will have a good number of options, for instance on L Street, and house buyers benefit from a few cafes as well. When it comes to education, high schools and primary schools are not very abundant in this part of the city, and therefore not always within a short distance. Apart from public schools, there are private elementary and high schools.

Character

Burlington Road has a character that appeals to a fairly diverse group of people. Even though the atmosphere is not the most lively in this part of the city finding one of the a few bars is very easy as they are generally situated in very convenient locations. Most areas in Burlington Road are reasonably quiet, as the streets tend to be quite calm, although that is not the case near one of the railway lines, US Hwy 75 or I-80. It is easy to access green spaces in the neighborhood since there are approximately 10 of them close by for residents to discover.
