What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Dundalk

School is clean and close by . There are two quick marts withing the neighborhood and a park and fishing pier

If I had to, I could walk to the store or several restaurants. There's several urgent care locations nearby and also an urgent care vet hospital maybe 3 miles away. We have a large backyard, plenty of room for nature and a huge field divides the neighborhood from a busy street.

I don't think anything is really unique. It is older, but there is quite a bit of new construction and road work happening. I enjoy living close to Target. I need to frequent more restaurants, but I usually choose to eat at home. I like going to Target and taking my daughter to the nail salon.

We have a pool, golf course, 15 miles of lighted walking tails. i don't think we need improvement. We enjoy living near Target, Krogers, and Myers. We love to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings and Shigs n Pit.

It is an old community near many historical sights and a large city (that used to be nice but is no longer). It used to be a good hardworking blue collar community that was a great place to be raised, so I had a good childhood here.

It has multiple schools within a 10 mile radius, the transportation line is fairly close for a lot of connecting stops. Most neighbors are very friendly and quiet.
