What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Farmington Hills

I like the fact that I feel safe with my kids here. It is also nice that the rec center is walking distant

Not unique. I enjoy the location where I am. My home is in a less populated part of the complex. I also am able to get to highways that take me to most parts of the state easily.

Mostly living inside of a forest and to the Detroit burgers that opened up six months ago so honestly I would say it's.

What I like most about my neighborhood is safe as quiet and this respectful and everyone is friendly and courteous

The area is family friendly, schools, restaurants and stores are nearby. Neighborhood is quiet. There are parks nearby. There are a lot of outdoor activities to enjoy the outdoors.

It is a quiet neighborhood. It is close to restaurants and grocery stores and public transportation. I feel safe here.
