Open Houses in Fatima, Longueuil

The best transportation option in Fatima is very often a car.

In contrast, Fatima is not very transit friendly. Nevertheless, there are approximately 10 bus lines, and the closest bus stop is usually very close. Most homes for sale in this area are located in areas that are not very conducive to those who travel by foot as running common errands is sometimes difficult by walking.
