What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Westfield

I do not have any comments I do not know my neighbors no one talks to each other some font even wave at each other.

All houses have nice size yards. Common to see neighbors outside and kids playing. Many people walk their dogs.

I live way out in the country. The nearest grocery store is about 14 miles away. It's the very best place to live.

It's close to where I work. The area is also a nicer area in comparison to outlying areas. Crime isn't very high, and it's fairly quiet.

On weekends, I can go shopping with my family. There are many convenient shopping malls around and many restaurants

There's a lot of good neighbors there is plenty of kids for my child to play with there's also schools to chose from.
