What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Seattle

my neighborhood does have a lot of places to go eat. there are a lot of bars to visit and clubs if you are into that. There are a lot of places to shop and buy cars.

I like that it is more urban than downtown. There is a lot of small bars to go to and everything is at a short distance

Architecture is very old and special. Lots of great local restaurants and no chain food in my neighborhood.

Location on convenience of stores and transportation, restaurants and places to go to in the surrounding areas

Close to parks and open spaces. easy access to downtown. and grocery stores. Favorite small businesses close by.

Shoreline is a town that doesn't have much for shopping or dining. Too many old strip malls. I don't feel safe walking alone at night by myself
