What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Long Branch

It's cool and funky. It has well maintained older Tudor homes. There's an artsy feel to the neighborhood. My neighbors express that in the way they maintain their homes.

I like going to walks around my neighborhood because of the lakes around there. I like going to my local cafe with friends and family that makes rich hot chocolate. It feels like a treat.

There is good infrastructure nearby and there is also a commercial center that my family and I often go shopping, which can promote family harmony

I like to go to The beach . Also the park and stuff and buy food it's fine . Chicken wing apple Juice.

A block from the beach is awesome and less than one mile from a newly built complex with restaurants and a bar.

my neighborhood is near the highway whick is a faster getway. there is a mall five minutes close and it is very fun to attend every week.
