What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Middle River

peoples are good here and having nice culture to live with them, it has lot of grocerry stores nearby

There is a farm and sometimes you see a horse or a chicken. The houses aren't that old so they shouldn't have any structure problems.

Trailer park with mobile homes. Makes it very unique and affordable. Very close to stores, schools, police.

You won't find another neighbhood like mine. It's quiet, safe and well maintained. Everyone looks out for each other.

Nearby neighbors, but not overly nosy. Very quiet area. Close to necessities. Houses are not close together and are spaced so that you can't see into the neighbors home.

It's near the water. Would like to have a grocery store close by. There are bars and restaurants that are near by close to the water for the views.
