Walkable near top schools
Median $322K·Walkability 8.2/10·Schools 4.0/10
Golden hour hits Hermitage Flats hard—when the afternoon light catches the brick facades along Cherry Street and spills into the dining rooms of the 300-odd restaurants within a mile, you understand why residents call this corner of East Hills the center of everything. A coffee shop is a four-minute walk away, groceries are closer, and dinner is genuinely three minutes on foot. The walkability score of 8.1 reflects what you'll feel immediately: you can live here without treating your car as a second address. Condo prices run around $322K, which buys you access to a neighborhood where transit stops are a three-minute walk and you're downtown in five minutes if you need to be.
