What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Laurel

It is outside the Cory so it is very quiet and there are a lot of good places to run and explore which is fun

We have friendly and considerate neighbors. Our small town is only 15 minutes from a bigger city so we have many choices of bars, restaurants, entertainment etc. without actually living in the city.

I like how there are a lot of dogs and how everyone is so kind and generous to each other. I like going to the park with my family
