Public transport
editL'Étang-la-Ville is served by the T13 Express tram and the Transilien Line L train. There is an interchange station at Saint-Nom-la-Bretèche–Forêt de Marly, a train station at L'Étang-la-Ville and a tram station at L'Étang les Sablons. In addition there are several bus services, most notably a 6-day per week service to Saint-Germain-en-Laye.

Geography
editThe commune is effectively surrounded on the north, south and west by the Forêt de Marly with a physical barrier formed by the railway lines of the St-Nom-la-Bretèche branch of the Transilien Line L and the Grande_ceinture_Ouest.
Urban development of the forested area is effectively prohibited which prevents any further urban sprawl. Development of green spaces within the town or densification of existing development are the only avenues for further population growth.
