Transportation
This part of Hamilton is especially car friendly. Finding a place to park is easy, and the majority of properties for sale are a rather short car ride from the nearest highway, such as Lincoln M Alexander Parkway. In contrast, the public transit system in Lime Kiln is not very convenient. Nevertheless, there are a few bus lines passing through the neighbourhood, and the closest bus stop is usually a short walk away. It is challenging to commute by bicycle in this neighbourhood as there is a significant amount of elevation changes, and there are few bike lanes. Walking is also not very feasible for residents in Lime Kiln because carrying out daily needs is impractical on foot.
Services
There are no high schools and no primary schools in Lime Kiln. In addition, daycares are not particularly numerous and therefore not always within walking distance. With regards to eating, reaching the closest grocery store on foot is practical for some, but not all, property owners in Lime Kiln.
Character
Lime Kiln is a reasonably good neighbourhood to buy a house in for those who prefer a calm environment. Public green spaces are easy to get to since there are a few of them close by for residents to check out. This neighbourhood is quiet overall, as there are generally low levels of noise from traffic - although that is not the case closer to Highway 403 or Lincoln M Alexander Parkway.
