What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Sparks

restaurants are always close by and can be walking distance to go anywhere even with a car depends the destination

It is close to churches and one can go for religious services to any one of those. There are grocery stores for needed items and can be got from one of the stores. There are banks located in and aroun, not too far. There are plenty of fast food restaurants.

Beautiful environment, so you can breathe fresh air, after dinner can go to the nearby park for a walk, exercise is good for health

There is a park right behind the house where we go to walk dogs its wide open clean and quite. It has a nice veiw.

I really like the parks and restaurants around our neighborhood. Also many friends and family also live around this area.
