What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Carrollton

It is a family friendly neighborhood, I enjoy going to the parks and trails. It is very close to the city, however it feels suburban. My favorite shops are mom and pop shops, any kind, I just like knowing I am helping support small businesses.

It's not about what's outside my home, but what's inside. The memories of all the fun times we had over the past 30+ years.

Pet friendly with a dog park. Close to 2 grocery stores and lots of restaurants. Not far from downtown.

I like going on nature walks and going to the park. I also like the proximity to businesses. Things that are unique in my neigborhood are nothing really it's pretty basic.

I'm close to work, shopping and city hall / police department. I like going to eat a local Mexican restaurant because the employees are very accommodating and friendly and attentive to customers. Very relaxing place to eat and enjoy the meal and the party you are with.

There are many things i love about our neighbourhood. The area is very clean. I love the look of it. It is also very safe. Kids can freely roam around and play. Havent heard about any accidents or thefts here. Also it is very quiet in here.
