Multiple routes connect the neighborhood to downtown Chattanooga
Major roads and highways nearby offer routes into downtown Chattanooga. “Commuting is great. Easy access to the interstate, Highway 153 or East Brainerd Road,” Woodall says. Drivers can take Brainerd Road to Interstate 24 for a 9-mile trip into the City Center, which typically takes around 20 minutes. You can also take Brainerd Road all the way into downtown, but traffic lights and lower speed limits will slow things down. Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport is also nearby and has direct flights to cities like Charlotte, Atlanta, Chicago and Dallas. Some homes near the airport can experience significant noise pollution, but most of the neighborhood is unaffected.
You can hop on the public bus at a variety of stops in the neighborhood.
Brainerd Hills is just across the street from the Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport.

We have lived on Bass Rd in Brainerd Hills for 20 years. This is NOT a high crime area- false information. There are incidents of petty theft when cars have been left unlocked at night and rare isolated incidents of worse crimes, but this does NOT qualify as a high crime area.
Ours is a peaceful neighborhood- lots of folks walking dogs, parents pushing baby strollers, and joggers. This is a very stable older neighborhood, so no loud parties, etc.
