What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Solon

I am nothings really too new year nea, unique don't know what else to say it's just kind of boring that's pretty white suburban kind of boring

I like that I have a lot of stores around me. The police are very present. The schools are very safe for the children.

the neighbors are friendly and helpful, favorite local eating place Rusty Bucket, like to go to community center

We are one of the only neighborhoods with no sidewalks. There's parks nearby. The central city isn't too far away

It has classic city blocks, and infinite sidewalks that connect neighborhoods. The grocery store is very close by, and there are some good restaurants that are walkable.

is safe, is quiet, is clean, have good schools, there is always police driving around the neighbor and have nice sidewalk and lot of good stores and restaurants
