Transportation
The car is usually the favoured approach to navigate this part of the city. It is a rather short car ride to the nearest highway, such as Highway 6, from any home in Pleasant View, and parking is generally easy. This area is not very suitable for walking as meeting daily needs is inconvenient. Pleasant View is also not very amenable to cycling as the bicycling network is not very well-developed, and there is a considerable amount of elevation changes.
Services
Home buyers in Pleasant View almost always have to use a car to travel to the closest supermarket. Concerning education, this part of Hamilton does not have any high schools or primary schools. Furthermore, families may find it very difficult for their children to get to daycares on foot.
Character
Pleasant View is fairly good for those who need a quiet atmosphere, as the streets are generally peaceful - although there are still several noisier sections, especially around Highway 6. Parks aren't well-spread out, resulting in them being occasionally hard to reach from most locations within this part of Hamilton. Despite that, there are a few green spaces nearby for residents to relax in.
