Downtown has a character that appeals to a fairly diverse group of people. Although the ambience is not the most lively in this part of the city finding one of the about 10 bars is very easy because they are generally situated in very convenient locations. Downtown is reasonably quiet, as there are usually low levels of noise from traffic. Public green spaces, including Dave Elton Park and Helen Schuler Nature Centre, are very well-distributed and there are about 10 of them close by for residents to discover, making them very easy to access from the majority of locations within Downtown.
