What Renters Like and Dislike About Bowling Green

My neighborhood features an enormous waterpark at the City Pool. Our library is excellent. Several restaurants are worth staying in town to eat at. It

Lots of ponds used as water sources. It's really quiet at nighttime. Drivable distance to city. It's large yard so the kids can play

Our community is unique in that it has very perfect entertainment facilities. I like our restaurant very much and will go there with my family on weekends

I love that it is both safe and affordable at the same time. I also love that it's not too big and I can walk and access most places myself

There are a lot of sidewalks and there are police around that patrol. It males it much safer. I like going to parks.

I like my neighbors. I like the school for my son and i like that i feel safe no matter where i go. I also like that the grocery stores are close to me
