What Renters Like and Dislike About Owosso

I like that my neighborhood is quiet and close to some businesses. My neighborhood is a low traffic place.

It's a new place and town that I have never lived in. New things to experience and places to try out

Things I like most about living in my neighborhood are that neighbors are friendly and there are lots of nearby retail stores

We like to go out for a walk to the park to the store go to the school down to the citrus bowl to the arena to the soccer stadium closer downtown everything is good

there are woods in our backyard, it's familiar to me because i've lived here my whole life

Lots of friends and just nice because businesses are a good walk And not that far away resurrection was the first to be the one in my Facebook
