Nearby highways, such as Highway 420, are quite easy to reach from any location in this city, and it is very convenient to find a parking spot.

There are approximately 30 bus lines traversing the city, and most residences are close to a bus stop. It is difficult for pedestrians to move around in this part of the St. Catharines - Niagara metropolitan area since very few daily errands can be run without the use of a vehicle.
Services
Some, but not all, property owners in this city will reside within walking distance of one of over 50 supermarkets. There are also a few options for those who value nearby restaurants and cafes.
