Highlights
Characteristics
Transportation
Salem is especially car friendly. This village is not very amenable to cycling since there are few bike lanes, and there is a significant amount of elevation changes. It is also very difficult for pedestrians to navigate Salem because almost no day-to-day errands can be run without needing to resort to a car.
Services
In all but a very small number of cases, a vehicle is required to purchase groceries. As far as education is concerned, there are no high schools and no primary schools in Salem.
Character
Salem is a wonderful village to buy a house in for those who prefer a slower-paced environment. Salem is very quiet overall, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamor.
