Fraser Heights is one of the new/better areas of Surrey.

How easy is it to get around? I don't want to drive much. I will be living on 166 St. Is it easy to access by bus? How far is it from Gateway/Guildford skytrains?

Fraser Heights is a pretty small neighborhood and if you want to travel within it a bicycle is plenty. Asides from that, there is the C74 which runs every 15 minutes, with every other run alternating terminating at Guilford or Continuing to Surrey Central, check the actual schedule for details. Bus ridership is quite high from Fraser Heights, and during peak hours when all runs go between Surrey Central<->Fraser Heights, they run full size or even the commuter coach buses. Anyways, the bus is an express between Guilford and Surrey Central so it goes between them in ~10 minutes. Anything else?

Oh and the IGA has been long replaced by a Nesters Market =\
