What Renters Like and Dislike About Bexley

Hey there are some people that have a fun time to get together and drink it allows me to be a fun time with you are you and your clothes are some of them to the north side of your clothes the time

Best schools. Best neighbours. I love living in Bexley. I wish more people lived where I do. They would have a great place to live

Whats unique about my neighborhood is that there's nice people all around me, families taking walks around the neighborhood and its very quiet. The places i like to go to with my family and friends are bars and restaurants.

I like going to the restersunt, bar, school, field, playground, park and other places that I can be social at.
