Characteristics

Transportation

The best approach to navigate Vernon is very often a car. Coming across a place to park is easy, and many real estate listings are a reasonably short drive from the closest highway, such as Wilbur Cross Hwy. In contrast, the public transit service in Vernon is not very frequent. Nonetheless, property owners are served by a few bus lines, and it is very convenient to find a nearby bus stop from most houses. Most houses for sale in this town are located in areas that are not particularly suitable for those who get around as pedestrians because few common errands can be run without a car. Vernon is also not very amenable to bicycling as there is a considerable amount of slopes, and there are few bike lanes.
