Transportation
The car is very often the favored method to navigate Vernon. Accessing a parking spot is easy. Vernon is not very bicycling-friendly because the cycling infrastructure is quite bad, and there are a good number of elevation changes for cyclists to brave. Getting around as a pedestrian is also not very practical for house buyers in Vernon as very few common errands can be run without a vehicle.
