What Renters Like and Dislike About Forest Grove

Very rustic old fashioned neighborhood. Properties not built right on top of each other. Somewhat rural/ urban combination

I enjoy that my neighborhood is very close to stores and restaurants. It's also very unique because everyone is so very friendly.

Everything is local and pretty close distance without driving to far from home and everything seems clean and welcoming.

Dont have family in area but friends bar or walks around town. Or to bus to head to a bigger area with more to do.
