Alvik is one of Stockholm's largest transit hubs with the T-bana green line, the Nockeby tram (toward Nockeby), and the Tvärbanan light rail (toward Hammarby Sjöstad and Solna). This makes it possible to reach large parts of Stockholm without transfers. Travel time to T-Centralen is about 10 minutes.

Alvik has a mixed housing market with older rental apartments, newly built cooperative apartments, and some townhouses. Proximity to water and public transport drives prices upward, but the supply is broader than in many other Stockholm areas.
