What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Milwaukee

Around the holidays they decorate over here. We have a bar right by the house family and friends go to.

I like the restaurants and some of the small town pubs nearby. There are a lot of old historical looking buildings. And some cute little independent businesses

It's all old people really I mean there is stores near me but I don't really go anywhere in my neighborhood

Nothing . It's just another rundown part of the ghetto. Just old Milwaukeewith lots of gentrification

I like how my neighborhood is off main roads so it doesn't get a lot of traffic. I like how there are a lot of restaurants. I like how there are a lot of family run businesses.

The only thing that i like about it is that its close to the stores and not far from my job. And when i get a chance to move im definitely going to do that
