Big Ridge Real Estate & Houses for Sale

The character of Big Ridge is exemplified by its relaxed atmosphere. This area is very quiet, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour. Lastly, although the community is not home to any green spaces, parks are sparse in nearby communities, which makes it easy to reach them.

Transportation

The best approach to get around in this area is very often driving. Accessing a parking spot is quite easy. Walking is not very convenient for house buyers in this community because meeting daily needs is practically impossible without a vehicle. Big Ridge is also not very appropriate for biking because the bicycling infrastructure is not very extensive, and there are a good number of hills to challenge cyclists.

Housing

Nearly 95% of the dwellings in the community are occupied by homeowners and 5% are occupied by renters. The substantial percentage of single detached homes in the housing stock of this community is an important part of its character. Roughly 20% of properties in this community were constructed in the 1960s and 1970s, while most of the remaining buildings were built pre-1960 and in the 1980s. This part of Cape Breton Municipality is primarily composed of two bedroom and three bedroom homes.

Services

There are no high schools and no primary schools in Big Ridge. Additionally, it can be very hard to get to daycares by foot. With respect to eating, it is very rarely possible for house buyers in Big Ridge to reach the nearest supermarket as pedestrians.
