    "Elon does not offer regular public transit, that I know of. Living here almost requires you to own a vehicle or at least a bicycle. There are sidewalks downtown, but no bike lanes. Many people who live in Elon commute to other nearby cities for work. Greensboro is approximately 30 minutes west by car, while Burlington is just minutes away and Mebane is about 20 minutes east of Elon. "
