Neighbourhood
Suburban neighborhood with sidewalks throughout. Great for taking an evening stroll. Small community playground. Ten minutes from a great park with playgrounds, hiking trails, basketball court, nature center, and open fields for playing. Five minutes from nearest supermarket and bank. Five minutes from the highway.
You will need a car to get around. Open to possibility of car swap.
The Light Rail (train) is a great option for traveling uptown to avoid city traffic and parking, but you need to drive to the station (about 15 minutes from house), so it depends whether that's worth it for you or not.
