Character
Shawinigan is reasonably quiet, as the streets tend to be tranquil - however some parts can be quite loud, especially around Autoroute de l'Énergie or one of the railway lines. Green spaces are spread out sporadically, which makes it sometimes difficult to get to them. Despite that, there are over 100 parks nearby for residents to unwind in, like Parc de la Rivière-Noire and Parc de l'Île-Melville.
