What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Jamestown

I can walk to the main grocery store, shopping center, banks, and even gyms from my house utilizing sidewalks and traffic lights. I've ridden bikes across town to run errands or simply go out to eat with my husband.

I like my neighborhood. The neighbors are friendly. The area is quiet with the exception of children at play. The streets are well lit after dark.

Downtown is old looking with classic building. The world's largest buffalo is located here in Jamestown. Great eating.
