About Living in Bowen Island, British Columbia
Transportation
Bowen Island is very car friendly. Coming across a parking spot is generally easy. On the other hand, commuting by public transit is very difficult in Bowen Island. Thankfully, the municipality is linked by a few bus lines, and bus stops are not very far from most homes. Many of the houses for sale in this municipality are located in places that are not very convenient for those who travel by foot as almost no common errands can be run without the use of a vehicle. This part of the Metro Vancouver metropolitan area is also not very bicycling-friendly since the bicycling network is not very well-developed, and there is a significant amount of hills.
Services
It can be very hard to walk to high schools and primary schools from properties for sale in Bowen Island. In terms of eating, a fraction of home buyers in this municipality may be able to reach the nearest supermarket on foot, while others will have to rely on a vehicle.
