What does the word ‘convenient’ in line 1 mean

My neighborhood is very convenient - it’s near the shopping center and the bus station. It is also safe. But those are the only good things about living downtown. It is very noisy - the streets are always full of people! The traffic is terrible, and parking is a big problem! I can never park on my own street. I’d like to live in the suburbs.
