What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Mission Viejo

I love the scenery and relaxing atmosphere. There's also a lot to do from shopping to movie theaters, and parks.

I'm right next to a hospital, which I love. I know that if I'm sick or have an emergency, there is help close by. Also, I am right next to a lovely shopping center which has many wonderful restaurants that I enjoy.

Hometown like feel here. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. Schools are excellent. It's safe here and I love that the city does lots of activities and decorates the streets during the holidays

I LIVE IN A OLDER NEIGHORHOOD THAT IS IN A GATED COMMUNITY. IT IS ALSO CONSTANTLY BEING PATROLLED. STREETS ARE ALSO WELL LIT AND THERE ARE VERY FEW CARS THAT ARE BEING DRIVEN IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD.

We have many nice restaurants and shops in several different directions. We have good schools, movie theaters, a good library and many other things. I like

The air is clean & it feels like a community. There are lots of people being active outdoors. Lots of dogs being walked, too.
