Characteristics

Transportation

Cars are a great means of transportation in Piney View. Parking is generally easy. Most houses for sale in this community are located in areas that are not very suitable for pedestrians because very few common errands can be run without the use of a car. The bicycle is a quite bad means of transportation in Piney View since there are very few bike lanes, and bicycling is rendered strenuous by the typically hilly terrain.
