Lifestyle

Transportation

Driving is usually the favoured way to navigate this city. Nearby highways, such as Highway 400, are easy to drive to from any location in Barrie, and it is straightforward to park. However, public transit riders may find few options in this city as a result of the low service level. Thankfully, homeowners can rely on the Allandale Waterfront Station and Barrie South Station on the Barrie Line. There are about 20 bus lines, and the closest bus stop is usually just around the corner. Walking is not very feasible for house buyers in Barrie since very few common errands can be run without needing to resort to a car.

Services

A portion of property owners in Barrie may have the option to shop for their groceries on foot in one of over 50 stores, while others will have to use another means of transportation. There are also a limited number of choices for those who care about restaurants and cafes in close proximity. In terms of education, it is a reasonably short walk to get to primary schools from anywhere in Barrie. However, families may find it challenging to get to high schools as a pedestrian. Parents benefit from public and private schools at both the elementary and high school level.

Character

Barrie offers a calm ambience and will appeal to those who enjoy spending time outdoors. This city is reasonably quiet overall, as the streets are reasonably tranquil - however some parts can be quite noisy, especially closer to Highway 400 or one of the railway lines. Lastly, it is easy to get to green spaces, since there are over 200 of them close by for residents to explore and numerous homes have a park a short walk away.
