What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Taunton

I like my neighborhood because it is a little way from downtown. I can walk to downtown if I wish. It is close to my church.

this completely can't be answered im certainly not sure.i think there is a good pizza place close by.i like visiting family or friends.

Beautiful houses, nice neighbors. Everybody minds their business. Also they have block parties and everybody knows everybody.

Texas Roadhouse would be nice we live walking to target and keeping our bikes safe. Love going to Smokey bones

I like taking my son to the many clean parks in the area. I like walking and feeling safe. There are not many bars or shops.

I like a local pizza restaurant. I like that the highway is close by. I liike that there is a pharmacy close by.
