Transportation

Cars are a great mode of transportation in Dunbarton. It is very easy to park, and many real estate listings are a reasonably short drive from the nearest highway, such as Highway 401. In contrast, commuting by transit can be difficult in Dunbarton by reason of the infrequent service. Nevertheless, the neighbourhood is served by a few bus lines, and bus stops are typically nearby. Dunbarton is not especially suited for cycling as there are few bike lanes, and the topography is not especially flat. Nonetheless, biking is more practical in certain pockets than others. Dunbarton is also not especially well-suited for those who travel by foot because few common errands can be run without the use of a vehicle.

Services

The nearest supermarket in Dunbarton is usually only a reasonably short walk away. When it comes to education, primary schools and daycares are convenient to access on foot from most properties for sale in this part of Pickering. However, there are no high schools in Dunbarton.

Character

Dunbarton is a very good neighbourhood to buy a home in for those who prefer a relaxed ambience. The noise levels in this area are very low, as noise from the streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue around Highway 401 or the railway line. Finally, although Dunbarton does not contain any public green spaces, parks are badly-located in nearby neighbourhoods, making them easy to get to.

Housing

The large proportion of single detached homes in the housing stock of Dunbarton is an important part of its character. Around 30% of properties in this part of Pickering were built in the 1980s, while the majority of the remaining buildings were built in the 1960s and the 1990s. This neighbourhood is particularly good for those looking for four or more bedroom homes. Roughly 90% of the properties in the neighbourhood are occupied by homeowners and the rest are rented.
