Transportation
The car is very often the favoured way to move around in Northgate. The majority of houses for sale are a short drive from the nearest highway, and coming across a place to park is generally easy. In contrast, commuting by transit can be difficult in Northgate by reason of the service's low frequency. Nonetheless, residents have access to a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far from most properties. Walking is not very practical for home buyers in Northgate as few daily needs can be met on foot.
Services
Northgate does not contain any high schools or primary schools. Additionally, parents and their children may consider it challenging to get to daycares on foot. When it comes to eating, some, but not all, house buyers in this part of the city will live within walking distance of the closest supermarket. Conversely, a cafe is often just around the corner, and a limited number of restaurants are available in Northgate as well.
