What Renters Like and Dislike About Lansing

Lots of near by restaurants to walk to and vlose patksand family hosted events for the community for friends and family

Downtown area lots of stores and restaurants I love this ice cream parlor by my house. I like going to some of the public parks in the area too.

Food restaurants are close by. The grocery store is close by.The mall is close by & the stores are nice...................................

The yard is very big. There is a dairy queen and a mac doodles near by. I would like to have a skate park.

I like that the local restaurants are very good. They have friendly people working there and the prices are good and you get a lot of food for what you pay for. I think that is a great and underrated thing. I eat there with family and it always feels special.
