Characteristics
Transportation
Driving is an excellent mode of transportation in this area. Parking is generally easy. This area is not very bicycling-friendly because there are a fair number of elevation changes for cyclists to brave, and there are very few bike lanes. Traveling as a pedestrian is also not very practical for home buyers in this area as almost no daily errands can be run without the need for a car.
Services
In all but a very small number of cases, a vehicle is needed to buy groceries. There are also a few opportunities for those who value nearby restaurants. With respect to education, it can be practically impossible to access primary schools from properties for sale in this area.
Character
