What Renters Like and Dislike
What Renters Like and Dislike About Wilkes Barre
I am comfortable, I trust my neighbors, never had a violent experience. Everyone is friendly and knows me
It is close to highways so you can get to many places. It is nice and quiet . There are not many barking dogs making noise all the time
It's close to downtown and all the city buildings . It's easy to get around and have a diverse selection of food .
I like that there are plenty of sidewalks making it a very walkable city. There are plenty of stores with lots of shopping and restaurants.
I like the stores and resturaunts in the area. Its nice to walk around during the day. The things I need are accessible
I live on a small, quiet lake that no motor boats are allowed with gated access & only 12 homes. It is in the country & very beautiful.
