What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Uptown Harrisburg

Cork and fork during the day time is good sometimes depending on what part your in and you always need to watch your back on everything

It's extremely exclusive with beautiful mansions and close enough to the city that easy access to restaurants and major highways
