Forest Hills

Part of the Greater Halifax metropolitan area, Forest Hills is a neighbourhood within Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Transportation

Driving is a very good mode of transportation in Forest Hills. It is straightforward to access a place to park. On the other hand, the public transit service in this part of the municipality is not very frequent. Thankfully, residents have access to a few bus lines, and the nearest bus stop is usually very close by. Traveling by foot is not particularly feasible for house buyers in this area as few day-to-day errands can be run without a vehicle. On the other hand, biking is easy in Forest Hills as the cycling infrastructure is fairly good.

Services

A supermarket is generally accessible within a rather short trip from anywhere in this area. Likewise, a cafe is often just around the corner, and a small selection of restaurants is available in this area as well. With respect to education, schools and daycares are straightforward to access without a car from most houses for sale in Forest Hills.

Character

People who prefer a calm environment will enjoy Forest Hills. There are about 10 public green spaces close by for residents to unwind in, including Cole Harbour Commons and Settle Lake Park, and they are very well-situated, which makes it very easy to reach them. This part of the municipality is very quiet overall, as there are low levels of noise from traffic.

Housing

About 70% of the properties in the neighbourhood are occupied by homeowners while renters occupy the remainder. In this area, about half of buildings are single detached homes, while small apartment buildings and townhouses make up most of the remaining housing stock. A majority of the housing growth in this part of Halifax occurred between 1960 and 1980. This area also has a selection of housing size options - there is a higher proportion of three bedroom homes in this neighbourhood.
