What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Farmington

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

The neighbors are friendly and keep to themselves, no one is disruptive of the peaceful nature of the street we live on.

You can walk anywhere. Restaurant nearby. shopping mall is near. everybody knows who you are and will stop to talk.

Nice neighbors, downtown is close by. Convenient being close to town but far enough away to still be in the country some.

the only thing I really like about the area is that it is a cheaper place to stay for lower-income families trying to get by majority of the people here are friendly
