Transportation
Altamont is very car friendly. It is very easy to park, and it is a reasonably short car ride to the closest highway, such as Trans-Canada Highway, from anywhere in this area. However, travelling by public transit is challenging in Altamont. Nonetheless, homeowners are served by a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far from most residences. It is challenging for pedestrians to navigate this area since running common errands is inconvenient by walking. Biking is also very hard in this part of the municipality because cyclists are faced with a considerable amount of slopes, and Altamont has a quite poor cycling infrastructure.

Primary schools are convenient to get to on foot from most properties for sale in this part of West Vancouver. In contrast, there are no high schools in Altamont. When it comes to eating, buying one's groceries generally demands the use of a vehicle in this part of West Vancouver. Residents of Altamont can enjoy a few restaurants.
