Characteristics

Transportation

Driving is very often the best method to navigate Crestline. It is very convenient to park, and many real estate listings are a rather short car ride from the closest highway. However, Crestline is not very transit friendly. Thankfully, there are a few bus lines crossing the neighborhood, and the nearest bus stop is typically a short distance away. It is at times difficult for pedestrians to get around in Crestline since few day-to-day needs can be carried out without a car. Crestline is also not very appropriate for bicycling because there are few bike lanes, and cyclists are faced with quite a few hills.
