What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Hockessin

The neighborhood is Very quiet. It is convenient because of the nearby shopping and restaurants,also, colleges and schools are close by.

There is an elementary school within walking distance. We have a neighborhood Walmart about 10 minutes away and various restaurants that are nearby.

What I like most about my neighborhood is that it is quiet and the people are friendly. I also like how safe it it which I think that is due to most households being three generational.

nothing much this place is garbage there is nothing unique about where i live no favorite stores where to go out of Norfolk

We like to take vacations go out to eat going to Buffys to our family's house going to fun places like cloud 9
