What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Goldenrod

It's better than the natural eye. You see older people walking/talking & never really hear children playing. Although you know they're there. It's convenient to pick & choose a few options for dining experiences

It's not that unique but it's very clean , quiet and safe I don't know many people other then my neighbors. Shops are within short drive. I don't go to bars

I love that it has everything nearby from restaurants, banks to nightclubs and hotels so it's very wide in that aspect

store that i like and go to often are near by and they are adding stuff every day to its fun to see the new things they add

Easy to get to the grocery store. The neighbors are friendly and quiet. There is a walking trail right down the street.

My neighbor is old and there aren't any stores near it is a while away from any where u like going with my friends
