What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Hollywood

Convenient to airports. Convenient to large facilities like shopping, colleges, libraries. Convenient to beaches and parks.

I like living near the ocean. I like going to Taco Beach Shack and Margaritaville. Downtown Hollywood is a nice place to go with friends and family.

Go restaurants, good schools, good quality air, good businessesbars, good shopping great persons, great air quality

The neighborhood is very safe and friendly. The park in the neighborhood. The Chinese restaurant. The schools are very close to houses.

I like that it is well kept and everyone has their own pool. It is private and quiet and good for all ages.

Best location near the beach and downtown. Excellent local restaurants like the Greek joint, or Indian food. Close to grocery stores
