Transportation
Getting around by car is very convenient in Summit. Nearby highways, such as Highway 403, are reasonably easy to access from any location in this part of the city, and it is very convenient to park. It is very impractical for pedestrians to navigate this area since almost no day-to-day needs can be met without having to use a vehicle. It is also difficult to travel by bicycle in Summit because there are quite a few hills, and the cycling infrastructure is not very comprehensive.
Services
There are no high schools and no primary schools in Summit. Furthermore, it can be very hard to reach daycares on foot. With respect to eating, property owners in this part of Hamilton almost always have to turn to a car to buy groceries.
Character
As there are very few people out and about on the streets, Summit is relatively serene. Parks are sparse, resulting in them being rather challenging to access from many locations within this part of the city. Despite that, residents will be able to access public green spaces in nearby neighbourhoods.
