What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Franklin

My favorite restaurant in the community, where the decoration is very beautiful, more attractive to me, I often go there to attend parties.

We have a cemetery that's great for walking. Near the river great for traveling. Near downtown. Close to store

Everyone knows each other. The parks. Ice cream places. To the park to enjoy some freash air. Good place to raise family.

The things I like most about my neighborhood is that it's safe and quiet. I also like the friendliness of our neighbors and peers.
