What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Pomona

Stores close by; schools nearby; surrounded by two nicer cities; no apartments in my area; and starting to tear down own ugly buildings

My neighborhood is very convenient because it has grocery stores, pharmacy, and like a small plaza, and most of all have many fast food around my area.

I usually go to the movie theater with my family to watch movies. I used to live in a place where there was nothing to buy food, but now I can easily buy a lot of food. You used to have to go far to buy things, but now this can buy a lot of things that you couldn't buy before

I like to hurt up and be done with this. This quiz is catchy and dumb also really long so I'm gonna copy and paste this just in case another question like this appears

i like to go out in public i like going to different places such as shoppes and places to eat or maybe the movies

I like going everywhere like going shopping or going to the park because I like to do excessive excercise in the park and Every single area that has a limit quantity of people
