What Renters Like and Dislike About Ridgeland

Close to shopping mall and restaurants. Also close to Walmart, Kroger and other stores. There are Doctors and dentists close by. Close to hospitals. Close to schools..

It's has a lot of stores surrounding the neighborhood and I like the house because it is private and I like it....

I like my neighborhood because there are many other people my age who I can befriend. There are also many restaurants within walking distance.

Our neighborhood is quiet and safe. It is close to hospital and favorite restaurant and shopping centers. We love to go to the nearby park for recreation.
