What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Bothell

It's really pretty and clean. I live by really nice grocery stores and love going on runs around the area. It's really green and beautiful with pretty scenery

It's not unique, brand new subdivisions. Recently moved here, so don't have favs I hope to explore the area this summer

Parks within walking distance, private security firm patrolling. Gated community. Almost nonexistent crime, good schools, neighbors who are friends and part of our community keeping it safe.

I don't think my neighbor is unique but it is diverse. My favorite local business is McMenamins. There's a park and a trail near my house that's great for bike riding

I like my neighborhood because in general people are nice, friendly and help each other out. There are things to do close by and living in the PNW it is beautiful.
