Getting around by car, bus, or trolleybus can be very time-consuming, especially during rush hours.
There are no markets in the area but in the morning people come from the nearby village of Domnești and sell fruits and vegetables on the street.
There is a Billa supermarket that serves the area; the store has been turned into a Carrefour market in 2015.
