What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Midland

It is close to stores, schools, places to eat. It is quiet and peaceful. There is a park for kids and dogs close in and walkable to everything one would need.

I love that we are surrounded by woods and there are short hiking trails nearby. We can ride our bikes to downtown. People are quiet.

Nothing unique, lots of varied businesses to walk or bike to, there's a park close by for people and dogs and I usually go on long walks about the area. or bike

I like going to my friends house right down the road from me. I also like to go to the park and play with all of my friends
