What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Cincinnati

I am very close to a beautiful park that has a lot of activities. My neighbors also are very friendly and wonderful to live next to.

We have a great view of the city, we are within walking distance of a ton of things to do (art museum, playhouse, playgrounds). There are a bunch of restaurants and bars nearby for us to meet up with friend.

I enjoy living near a gas station and close to fast food restaurants. It is also nice we have lots of schools within a solid distance to choose from.

Good nice clubs, good park and river view, good restaurants, good place for outdoor activity, happening place, good for kids and old people. Safe place, no issues of theft

I like the sidewalks my neighborhood has it makes getting around very easy for everyone. Everyone can just relax

Our neighbors are great and we help one another. There is a great feeling of community. We are close to shopping and family.
