What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Lower Vailsburg Newark

I like nothing about the neighborhood that I live in I just want to move from where I live at. I don't know any one in my neighborhood

My neighborhood borders on Irvington and S Orange NJ. My favorite restaurants are the South Orange Village. I like going to Miti Miti.

The unique thing about my neighborhood is that it would never change. There are plenty restaurants, local groceries stores. There are a few recreation parks for kids.

There is a park nearby for the kids that I like to take my kids to. It is very big and clean and has alot of activities there o

I like to go to my bar because it's busy and I make all my friends there and there's a lot of fun around and I go out all the time and I don't usually stay at home

I like that the stores and fast food chains are close by. There is buses stop in walking distance to take u to shopping centers
