What Renters Like and Dislike About Sand Springs

My neighborhood has a wide variety of restaurants, stores and churches. There is something for everyone of every age or background. My favorite restaurant is schlotzsky's deli and I don't have any friends per day that I hang out with .

What I like most about my neighborhood is that my backyard is big enough to have a vegetable garden. I'm able to share some of my vegetables with my neighbors. In the street over are new homes with a lot of young families that walks their pets and you will see them ridding their bikes with their children.

It is a quiet neighborhood with long time residents. Our street, while not a cul-de-sac, loops to/from another secondary street, which eliminates through traffic.

I like living in the country because there are good fishing spots. Because we can own and fire guns. Because it is also quite

Its away from the city. Its relatively peaceful. There are more trees and hills than people. Moat people mind their own business and there is a great deal of greenery.

my neighborhood is very unique because the people are nice. My favorite store nearly is Walmart. I like going to the park with friends.
