What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About East Germantown Philadelphia

My neighborhood has many stores on each block so it's easier to get essential items. Plus there are cops making sure people are safe at night.

They're is a mall near me which is in walking distance which is not common for most of my friends. It has a lot of places that you are able to go to and enjoy.

The things that are good about my neighborhood is the food. There is many good places around here to eat.
