Characteristics
Transportation
Highland is very car friendly. It is very easy to access a place to park. On the other hand, traveling by transit can be very hard in Highland by reason of the infrequent service. Nonetheless, residents benefit from a few bus lines, and the closest bus stop is usually a short distance away. The bike is a fairly good mode of transportation in Highland. Many of the homes for sale in this part of the city are located in areas that are not very convenient for those who travel as pedestrians because very few daily needs can be carried out without a vehicle.
Services
Purchasing one's groceries often necessitates the use of a vehicle in this part of South Portland. Residents are served by a few restaurants and cafes as well. With respect to education, it can be very hard to access high schools and primary schools as a pedestrian from homes for sale in Highland.
Character
People who prefer a relaxed ambience will enjoy Highland. Highland is very quiet, as noise from streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue.
