Transportation
Commuting by car is straightforward in this part of the city. It is especially convenient to find a parking spot. However, the public transit service in Dundas is rather limited. Thankfully, there are a few bus lines, and bus stops are generally a short walk away. A majority of the houses for sale in this part of the city are located in places that are not very well-suited for those who travel by foot because carrying out daily needs is sometimes challenging. This part of Hamilton is also not very cycling-friendly as riding is made difficult by the typically hilly topography, and there are a limited number of bike lanes.
Services
Reaching the closest grocery store on foot is an option for some, but not all, house buyers in Dundas. There are also a few opportunities for those who care about nearby restaurants and cafes. When it comes to education, primary schools are easy to get to on foot from most homes for sale in Dundas. In contrast, there are only a limited number of high schools and thus they can be an extended walk away.
Character
The character of Dundas is exemplified by its slower-paced atmosphere. Parks are very well-spread out and there are about 30 of them nearby for residents to discover, resulting in them being easy to access from a large number of locations within the former municipality. This part of Hamilton is also fairly good for those who need quiet surroundings, as there are generally low levels of noise from traffic - although that is not the case near one of the railway lines, Highway 6 or Highway 403.
