Saint-André Real Estate & Houses for Sale

Saint-André is a fairly good municipality to buy a home in for those who prefer a calm ambience. Saint-André is reasonably quiet, as there isn't a lot of street noise or city clamour.

Transportation

Saint-André is particularly car friendly. It is very easy to park, and it is a reasonably short drive to the closest highway, such as Autoroute Jean-Lesage, from anywhere in this municipality. This municipality is not very well-suited for pedestrians as almost no common errands can be run without needing a car. Commuting by bicycle is also challenging in this municipality because the cycling network is not very comprehensive, and there are a good number of elevation changes for cyclists to brave. Nonetheless, some bike-friendly areas can be found.

Housing

Saint-André experienced its most significant building boom prior to the 1960s, so most of the available housing is from this era. The substantial proportion of single detached homes in the housing stock of this part of Kamouraska is an important part of its character. Homeowners occupy around three quarters of the dwellings in the municipality and the rest are rented. This municipality is primarily composed of four or more bedroom and three bedroom homes.

Services

There are no high schools and no primary schools in this municipality. Likewise, families may consider it very hard for their children to reach daycares by foot. With regards to food, property owners in Saint-André almost always need a vehicle to do their groceries.
