What Renters Like and Dislike About Waunakee

Many neighbors are my age so we played outside everyday while growing up. We still play driveway basketball everyday during quarantine. But just yesterday, the neighbor from across the street stopped over and needed help moving something into his car and asked so nicely. We did it and he thanked us. It's hard to explain without using the word unity.
