What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Clinton

Close to everything. The bars, restaurant, grocery store, and gas station is in walking distance. It is a good place to live. A cheap but good place

Nothing in particular, it is near a recreation center and baseball fields and churches. Grocery stores are within walking distance and we have a quaint neighborhood bar too

It is a rural but suburban area that is nice and quiet. There are several restaurants but not a wide selection. I like going to the parks and riding bikes in the summer time.

The building is somewhat hidden. Not to much traffic though cause we are not on a main street so it easy to miss the buildings when driving pass.

I live close to a grocery store and a pharmacy and also the Library. It's all in walking distance so I really don't have to drive no where if I don't want to unless it's winter time or it's raining.

I enjoy that just a few blocks away, is a lot of older local businesses and a few newer ones. You can get basic needs supplies fairly close.
