A part of the process of settling in your new neighborhood is getting to know your way around the area. Of course, you also have your needs so you must know where you can find them. For instance, if you have children you need to find a good school for them. In fact, you should have started your search even before you get to your new home. The Internet would surely be full of information. Then when you get there, you would already know which school to go to. So all you have to do is visit the school. If you have babies or toddlers, you would also need to find a daycare so you can go to work. Of course, you would need to do your grocery. In fact, you need to find it right away because soon you would need food and essential items. It's also important that you know how to get to the nearest convenience store and the hardware. It is, of course, important that you find a good family doctor, a dentist and even a vet so you won't panic so much in times of emergency. Of course, you should also know the way to the pharmacy and the hospital. And then with kids going to school, you should know where the library is located. Then, it would also be helpful if you know where the post office and the car repair are too.
