Saint James Real Estate & Houses for Sale
Saint James is a great parish to buy a home in for those who prefer a relaxed environment. Saint James is wonderful for those who enjoy quiet areas, as the streets tend to be very peaceful.
Transportation
Saint James is very car friendly. Parking is easy. Saint James is not very suited for biking because the cycling network is not very comprehensive, and the area is not especially flat. Walking is also not very practical for residents in this parish since almost no daily needs can be met without the use of a vehicle.
Housing
About 30% of homes in Saint James were constructed pre-1960, while the majority of the remaining buildings were built in the 1960s and the 1980s. Single detached homes and row houses are the predominant housing type in this parish. Homeowners occupy nearly 95% of the units in Saint James and the rest are rented.

Services
In all cases, a vehicle is needed to shop for groceries. With regards to education, Saint James does not contain any high schools or primary schools. Moreover, daycares are not plentiful and thus not always within walking distance.
