Sydney

Part of the Cape Breton metropolitan area, Sydney is a former city within Cape Breton Municipality, Nova Scotia.

Transportation

This area is moderately car friendly. Most real estate listings are a rather short car ride from the closest highway, and it is very convenient to come across a parking spot. It is sometimes difficult for pedestrians to navigate Sydney because few daily errands can be run without needing to resort to a vehicle. Commuting by bicycle is also occasionally challenging in this former city since Sydney has rather poor cycling infrastructure, and there is a significant amount of elevation changes.

Services

In all but a very small number of cases, a vehicle is required to do groceries in one of around 10 stores. Nevertheless, it is generally a reasonably short trip to the closest pharmacy, which can provide some basic food items. Residents of Sydney benefit from over 50 restaurants as well. Regarding education, in this part of the municipality, parents and their schoolchildren will usually be able to reach both primary and secondary schools by walking. However, daycares are not very numerous and thus not always within a short distance.

Character

Home buyers who prefer a calm environment will enjoy Sydney. It is easy to get to green spaces in the former city since there are around 30 of them close by for residents to visit. This area is also excellent for those who prefer a quiet atmosphere, as noise from the streets and other parts of the city is rarely an issue.

Housing

About half of properties in Sydney were constructed prior to the 1960s, while the majority of the remaining buildings were built in the 1960s. In this area, many buildings are single detached homes, and the remainder are mainly small apartment buildings. The split between homeowners and renters is about even. This part of Cape Breton Municipality has a good variety of unit sizes, ranging from lofts to four or more bedrooms.
