Woodlands

The neighbourhood of Woodlands is part of the city of Pickering, Ontario, which is situated in the Greater Toronto Area metropolitan area.

Transportation

Cars are a great means of transportation in Woodlands. Parking is quite easy, and it is a very short car ride to the nearest highway, such as Highway 401, from any location in this neighbourhood. In contrast, the public transit service in Woodlands is not especially frequent. Thankfully, house owners benefit from a few bus lines, and bus stops are ordinarily around the corner. Although some bicycling-friendly areas exist, it is difficult to travel by bicycle in Woodlands as there are a good number of slopes for cyclists to brave, and there are few bike lanes. There are also relatively few pedestrians out on the streets of Woodlands, despite the fact that many common errands can be run without needing to resort to a car.

Services

The nearest supermarket in Woodlands is generally only a very short stroll away. Moreover, house buyers won't have to look far to take advantage of the closest cafe, and there are also about 20 restaurants in this neighbourhood. When it comes to education, parents and their kids will welcome the proximity to daycares and schools, which are within a short distance from the majority of properties for sale in Woodlands. Residents benefit from public and private elementary schools.

Character

There is a great variety of green spaces in Woodlands. Public green spaces, like Amberlea Park, are especially well-distributed and there are around 20 of them nearby for residents to relax in, which makes it easy to access them. This neighbourhood remains relatively quiet, thanks to the presence of few pedestrians; however there can be more noise for those who are closer to the railway line or Highway 401.

Housing

Around 30% of properties in Woodlands were built after the year 2000, while the majority of the remaining buildings were constructed in the 1960s and the 1980s. Single detached homes are the most common housing type, representing roughly 60% of buildings in this area, and the rest of the properties are mainly duplexes.
