Aylmer, Gatineau Rentals

Aylmer is a very good part of Gatineau for travelling by car. Finding a place to park is quite easy, and it is a reasonably short drive to the nearest highway from any location in this sector. However, the public transit network in this part of the city is not particularly convenient. Nevertheless, rapid transit stations, including BEAULAC/du CANOTAGE, Principale/Washington and LATTION/de BEAUPRÉ with access to the Rapibus 800 and Pré Tunney, are not particularly far-removed from the majority of homes in the sector. There are approximately 40 bus lines passing through the sector, and bus stops are typically nearby. Many of the homes for sale in this area are located in places that are not especially well-suited for those who travel by foot as few day-to-day errands can be run without having to resort to a car. On the other hand, Aylmer is amenable to biking as this sector has a reasonably good cycling infrastructure.

Families will welcome that wherever their house is situated in this sector, daycares and schools are nearby. At the elementary level, there are both public and private schools. In terms of eating, a portion of property owners in this part of Gatineau may be able to buy their groceries by walking in one of about 10 stores, while others will have to rely on another means of transportation. A small number of restaurants and coffee shops can be found as well.

Aylmer is very good for those who enjoy quiet surroundings, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour.
