What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About West Lake Hills

My favorite thing is the cheaper prices and the accessibility to many grocery stores/restaurants or other places to visit.

My neighborhood has a great community, layout, and options for activities. There is all you need for shopping, food, and fun. Downtown is very close by but you don't have to be directly in downtown if you want a more suburban feel. There are so many pedestrian-friendly routes and outdoor opportunities!
