The immediate Vanderbilt campus area — Hillsboro Village, 12 South, Midtown — is walkable and bikeable. Nashville's WeGo bus system covers some routes, but transit is limited compared to northern cities. Most students find a car helpful for getting beyond the immediate campus area, especially for grocery runs, Green Hills shopping, and exploring the broader Nashville area. Rideshare is widely available and commonly used as a supplement.
