About the neighborhood

Felida features a tranquil atmosphere with peaceful streets throughout most areas, providing a serene setting. The housing options are predominantly single detached homes, with about 30% built after 2000 and a mix of older constructions from previous decades. Residences typically offer three or more bedrooms, accommodating various needs. Access to nearby schools includes both public and private elementary options, along with secondary education within reach. Dining options consist of several local restaurants and cafes adding to the neighborhood’s charm. Transportation primarily relies on automobiles, supported by easy parking availability, while a few bus lines serve the community for occasional transit needs.

Characteristics

Transportation

Driving is usually the preferred transportation option in this community. It is especially convenient to access a parking spot. However, Felida is not very transit friendly. Thankfully, house owners benefit from approximately 10 bus lines, and most homes are very close to a bus stop. The bike is a sometimes poor means of transportation in Felida because the bicycling infrastructure is fairly poor, and there is a significant amount of hills. This community is also not very convenient for pedestrians since very few daily needs can be carried out without a vehicle.

Services

In all but a few cases, a car is required to buy groceries in one of about 10 stores. A small number of restaurants and cafes are available as well. With respect to education, it is a rather short pedestrian trip to access both primary and secondary schools from anywhere in Felida. At the elementary level, both public and private schools can be found.

Character

The character of Felida is exemplified by its slower-paced ambience. Felida is wonderful for those who like quiet surroundings, as the streets are generally especially tranquil.
