What Renters Like and Dislike About Battlement Mesa

The feeling of community, restaurants within walking distance, it is dog friendly, local auto repair shops

What I like most about my neighborhood is how close it is to Downtown. I also enjoy it being walking distance to a music venue for concerts.

The people.easy assese to restaurants.convient transportation.and having more secure places to go to for amusement and enjoyment for the family to go to

Nothing unique there no stores,restaurants around close by.My family and I travel outside of the neighborhood to shop also eat.

neighbors that no each other. ANnd more police presents. ALSO MORE school programs that give the kids more to do.

I don't go to bars but my favorite food place is Chipotle. My shop is Gucci and Chanel. like I said about my neighbor hood is safe to raise a family.
