Portland Estates

The neighbourhood of Portland Estates can be found in the municipality of Halifax, Nova Scotia, which is situated in the Greater Halifax metropolitan area.

Transportation

This area is an extraordinarily good part of Halifax for driving. It is especially convenient to find a place to park, and many homes for sale are a reasonably short car ride from the closest highway. However, residents using public transit may have few choices in this area by reason of the infrequent service. Nevertheless, homeowners benefit from around 10 bus lines, and the closest bus stop is usually very close by. The bicycle is a fairly good means of transportation in Portland Estates. This part of the municipality is not especially convenient for people who travel by foot as running common errands is sometimes challenging without the use of a vehicle.

Services

The nearest supermarket in this neighbourhood is usually only a rather short stroll away. A small variety of restaurants can be found in Portland Estates as well. With regards to education, primary schools and daycares are straightforward to access by foot from anywhere in this area. In contrast, there are no high schools in this part of the municipality.

Character

This part of the municipality is very quiet overall, as noise from streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue. Lastly, it is very easy to access green spaces from a lot of locations in the neighbourhood since there are around 10 of them close by for residents to unwind in.

Housing
