Transportation
The best mode of transportation in Herring Cove is usually a car. It is very convenient to come across a place to park. However, this neighbourhood is not very transit friendly. Nevertheless, house owners benefit from a few bus lines, and most homes are very close to a bus stop. Herring Cove is not very conducive to those who travel by foot because running daily errands is very difficult by walking.

Property owners in this neighbourhood almost always have to use a car to reach the closest grocery store. A small number of restaurants and coffee shops are available. As far as education is concerned, both primary and secondary schools are convenient to get to on foot from any location in this area. On the other hand, daycares are not numerous and therefore not always within walking distance.
