Characteristics
Transportation
This part of Schenectady is reasonably conducive to people who prefer to get around as pedestrians; running common errands is easy without a car, and there are also a fair number of businesses in proximity. In contrast, traveling by bicycle is challenging in this area as the cycling network is not very comprehensive, and the topography is not particularly flat. The favored transportation option in this part of Schenectady is very often driving. It is convenient to access a place to park, and nearby highways, such as I-890, are very easy to access from any home in this part of Schenectady. On the other hand, commuting by public transit is at times challenging in this part of the city. Thankfully, residents are served by a few bus lines, and the closest bus stop is typically very close by.

Character
