What Renters Like and Dislike About Springfield

There is nothing unique about the neighborhood. Apartment complex surrounded by mall and other businesses.

You will always have companions to do things with if you want to, good food available at our restaurants without ever going outside, safety in and out of apartment. I feel very safe here, even tho I have some complaints.
