Walnut Creek is home to numerous bike paths for both recreation and practical transportation—if you enjoy running your errands or getting to work by bike. Upscale apartments near downtown are very walkable, while rentals towards the east end offer residents easy access to nearby nature preserves and the city’s open spaces.
