About Living in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia

Transportation

The preferred approach to navigate Cape Breton is very often a car. Coming across a place to park is generally easy. Travelling on foot is not very practical for property owners in Cape Breton as carrying out daily needs is very challenging.

Services

Families may find it very hard for their children to access high schools and primary schools as pedestrians. Likewise, there are only a very small number of daycares and therefore they can be a very long walk away. Regarding eating, it is very rarely an option for property owners in Cape Breton to shop for their groceries in one of around 30 stores by walking.

Character

Cape Breton is very quiet overall, as noise from the streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue. The majority of locations in the municipality have good access to parks, like Big Glace Bay Beach and Princess Colliery Nature Trail, since they are sparse. Still, there are over 200 parks close by for residents to visit.
