What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About West Albany Columbus

I like the people that are on my neighborhood. They are friendly and helpful when we need one another. We live close to the interstate which makes getting to local small businesses and to larger malls very convenient. The sidewalks are great for walking.

I like that it is close to a lot of walking paths. I feel safe and it is very pet friendly. There are also a lot of parks around.

There are several restaurants and shops nearby where one can relax and eat after shopping. I like going to the parks. There are several parks that vary in sizes where a person can go just to relax or have parties; since we have parks with charcoal grills.

People talking together. When thec n ail comes otgees ldet tgose waiti f know that tge maik has vmcome

I like going to bars and places close to here. It is a small neighborhood but has restaurant or shopping is within 8 miles.It is close to freeway but you feel so far away.

There are really pretty flowers and trees out in the yards, also everyone if really nice to each other.
