Characteristics
Transportation
The favored method to move around in this city is usually a car. It is easy to access a place to park, and most properties for sale are a short drive from the closest highway. However, the transit system in this part of the Beckley metropolitan area is not very practical. Nevertheless, the city is served by a few bus lines, and most homes are very close to a bus stop. Cycling is challenging in Montgomery because the cycling infrastructure is not very extensive, and there are quite a few hills. Most houses for sale in this city are located in places that are also not very conducive to pedestrians since running daily errands is occasionally difficult without the use of a vehicle.
Services
It can be very difficult to access primary schools as a pedestrian. With respect to eating, in the majority of cases, a vehicle is needed in Montgomery to reach the closest supermarket. Nevertheless, it is generally a short distance to the nearest pharmacy, which can provide some basic food items. A small variety of restaurants is available in Montgomery as well.
