What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Upper Manhattan New York

it safe transportation is near and good close to restautants bars where you could go with family and friends close to broadway shows

I like that the neighborhood is walkable and has many public transport options. I can walk to the gym, supermarket, subway station and my primary care doctor. A small Starbucks is a good feature of the neighborhood, as well as a sitdown Ethiopian restaurant. A public pool and park is also a unique feature of the neighborhood.

I can walk any place I want to. Everything is nearby: library, super market, restaurants, schools, And great public transportation

There are several bars and restaurants, too many to choose a favorite. I like taking long walks and relaxing at bars.

Well to be honest I don't like to go anywhere with my family and friends and the neighborhood I live in too much violence

Nothing is real unique about the neighborhood. It has plenty of grocers to use and lots of ethnic restaurants
