Transportation
Cars are an excellent transportation option in this neighbourhood. Accessing a parking spot is generally easy, and many real estate listings are a very short car ride from the nearest highway, such as Highway 401. In contrast, the public transit network in Preston Heights is not very convenient. Thankfully, the neighbourhood is linked by a few bus lines, and bus stops are usually a short walk away. The bike is a fairly poor method of transportation in this area because cyclists are faced with a significant amount of elevation changes, and the bicycling network is quite poor. It is also difficult for people travelling on foot to navigate this part of Cambridge as very few daily needs can be met without the use of a vehicle.
Services
Families will find that wherever their property is situated in Preston Heights, primary schools are nearby. In contrast, this part of the city does not contain any high schools. With respect to eating, a portion of property owners in Preston Heights may have the option to buy groceries on foot, while others will have to turn to another means of transportation. There are also a few options for those who value restaurants within walking distance.
