What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Centreville

We have lived here since 1986, raised our family of son, daughter, and grandson and many of our neighbors are still here. I have disabilities and our neighbors shovel my driveway when it snows. We have never had any adverse issues with any neighbors.

It's unique because people are actually friendly here. It is close to good restaurants like Villa Bella.

We normally go downtown for activities and to eat or walk around and enjoy the summer concerts. We also enjoy going to outdoor plazas such as Fairfax Corner and Promenade

I like that it is family- friendly and has good schools. Though it's expensive, it's lower than the general metro area.

I want to say my neighborhood is very unique they are broadminded and very helpful always jolly.Restaurants business are local favorite business. Occasionally I went restaurants with my family and friends.

It's in a quiet neighborhood and fairly new. There are grocery stores nearby and a very big recreational park as well
