Characteristics

Transportation

This township is very car friendly. Most real estate listings are a reasonably short drive from the nearest highway, and parking is quite easy. In contrast, getting around by transit can be very difficult in Centre due to the infrequent service. Nonetheless, property owners benefit from a few bus lines, and the nearest bus stop is typically a short distance away. Traveling as a pedestrian is not very practical for property owners in Centre as running daily errands is at times challenging without a vehicle. This area is also not very appropriate for cycling since there are a good number of hills, and the bicycling network is not very comprehensive.

Services

Residents will value that no matter where their property is situated in Centre, primary schools are nearby. On the other hand, there are only a limited number of high schools and consequently they can be an extended trip away. Apart from public schools, there are private elementary and secondary schools. Regarding eating, accessing the nearest supermarket as pedestrians is practical for some, but not all, home buyers in Centre. Residents are served by over 50 restaurants and cafes as well.

Character

Home buyers who prefer a relaxed atmosphere will enjoy Centre. Centre is very quiet overall, as there are generally low levels of noise from traffic. Getting to public green spaces, such as Rum Village Park and Beverly D. Crone Restoration Area, is sometimes difficult within the township since they aren't well-spread out. Still, there are about 30 green spaces close by for residents to explore.
