What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Middleton

It's great to live close to some good restaurants and a 25 min walk to the grocery store and Target. If I time it right, I can walk outside my door and take the bus all the way downtown (7 miles) for $2.

It is close to the highway and some shops, grocery stores and restaurants. It is fairly safe as well.

The neighborhood is secluded and peaceful. No traffic and very quiet. Not extremely close but fairly easy access to gas station/grocery store.

is full of kids so my childrens can come out and play safely, is not to crowded, is very pet friendly and yo can take out your pet to public places
