Hilldale is the east side of the old city, strung along Madison Street (U.S. 41A) between downtown and Richview Road. The county’s Comprehensive Plan says it has the most potential for walkability of any area outside downtown, with homes close to shops, and good transit access along Memorial Drive and Madison Street and in the neighborhoods around Golf Club Lane and Paradise Hill. It also says the width of Madison Street, and its lack of crosswalks, pedestrian signals and good sidewalks, make getting around on foot or by bus hard.
