What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Downtown Hartford

Not really much to do with friends except go watch a movie. The time when a lot of people come out is the Christmas parade and when we have other events like that school games and stuff like that. Tortilla soup, bobs sandwich shop, magnolia blue, janie's pastries, are good places to eat down here. The antique shop is a nice place to visit if u like stuff like that and the local black owned business are good too other than that yea.

It's quite and very peaceful in my neighborhood. No night time traffic, mostly middle aged family's live on my street

I visit with family. I like my kids can play and ride bikes without fear. I like I can leave my door unlocked during the day.

I love that everyone knows everyone . I love that the restaurants are very family oriented. This town is great
