Transportation
This part of the city is very car friendly. Coming across a parking spot is generally easy. In contrast, getting around by public transit is very difficult in Richmond. Thankfully, residents have access to a few bus lines. It is very inconvenient for pedestrians to move around in Richmond since carrying out daily needs is very impractical. Cycling is also difficult in this area as there are a good number of elevation changes to challenge cyclists, and the bicycling infrastructure is not very extensive.
Services
It can be very hard to walk to high schools and primary schools from homes for sale in this part of the city. Residents are served by public and private elementary schools. Moreover, it can be very difficult to get to daycares as a pedestrian. In terms of eating, shopping for one's groceries very often necessitates the use of a vehicle in this area.
Character
Richmond is reasonably good for those who need a quiet atmosphere, as the streets are usually tranquil - although that is not the case around the railway line, Highway 7 or Highway 416. It is rather difficult to access parks in the neighbourhood since they are spread out sporadically. Despite that, there are about 20 green spaces nearby for residents to relax in.
