Transportation
Humbermede benefits from a fairly good public transit system. Residents have access to a few bus lines, and the nearest bus stop is generally very close. In contrast, Humbermede is not very bike-friendly because the cycling network is quite bad, and riding is made strenuous by the typically hilly terrain. Walking is not very common in Humbermede, despite the fact that many daily errands can be run without needing to use a vehicle. In contrast, the car is usually the favoured method of transportation in this part of Toronto. The street layout is reasonably well suited for cars, and parking is quite easy.
Services

Those who like to dine in restaurants will have a good number of opportunities, and home buyers can enjoy a few cafes as well. As far as education is concerned, it is a rather short walk to access primary schools and daycares from most houses for sale in Humbermede. However, this area does not contain any high schools.
Character
One of the highlights of Humbermede is its great variety of green spaces. To be more precise, parks are especially well-distributed and there are a few of them nearby for residents to unwind in, making them very easy to access. At the same time, the majority of streets have quite bad tree coverage. As there are very few people out and about on the streets, this part of Toronto remains relatively calm.
