What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Ferguson

This is a quite neighborhood. Neighbors look out for each other. I like going to the neighborhood park to do my walks. Park area is well maintained and family oriented.

The people are nice, it's quiet, and everyone minds their own business. My job is close to home. And I like to go to the park with my family.

I like how kids can go hoop at the parks and schools. I like going to the amusement parks like six flags.

I like being with my family and hanging around them and I like going outside playing with my dog and that's it

What is unique about my neighborhood is that everyone knows each other. There are corner stores that are within walking distance. I used to like to go to the park that is within walking distance when I was younger.
