Thankfully, residents have access to a few bus lines, and most homes are very close to a bus stop. The bicycle is a good means of transportation in Mountain View. Many of the homes for sale in this community are located in areas that are not especially convenient for pedestrians because few daily errands can be run without a vehicle.
