What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Milpitas

I live at the foothills of the mountain.I love going to the local all you can eat buffet. Other than the rain season, the weather here is always nice.The neighbors are communicable.

The unique about my neighborhood is beautiful view. I would like to go with family and friends to bbq in the park.

I'm close to my neighbors, because they are super kind. My family bonds with them as well. I like how places are close.

I like that we have a lot of parks nearby with swimming pools, basketball courts, and tennis courts. We also have 2 car dealerships near our neighborhood. At night, my friends and I may go outside and play basketball

There's so many different restaurants that are walking distance. Many different places to shop for groceries including convenient stores.
