What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Lincoln

It is a very quiet neighborhood where the neighbors look out and care for one another. There are adequate variety of restaurants, brewery's, and retail stores within walking distance. We usually go to brew for coffee, top golf for pleasure, the park for the kids to play, and multiple restaurants.

I like that the schools are very good and close to my neighborhood and there are many parks nearby. There are also sidewalks and trails to make it was to go for walks.

Close to everything a person needs. Light rail is nearby. Close to bus routes if needed. Interstate is close by.

I love my neighborhood; I have an organic market right behind my house. The street called Selby also behind my place has tons of really nice restaurants, people come from all over to visit. Three blocks from me is Summit very big homes, and one block from that is Grand which also have shops and restaurants. We also have some nice parks for kids to play.

The things I like most about my neighborhood include that it is a good place to raise families. It is also near schools and parks.

Convenient to almost anything in the metro area. Close to public transportation. Close to numerous universities and colleges. Easy access to good medical care.
