What Renters Like and Dislike About Somerton Philadelphia

walk than I have already said. I am not a writer! Give me multiple choice questions without making me to improviseable distance to businesses, generally quiet, nothing more

good walking space. well maintained kids sports organization, nice playgrounds. Lots of churches, convenient to public transportation

I want to live in a safe and comfortable environment. There's good security, good neighbors, good infrastructure

Parks or restaurants in the city I like to have fun and make food. We usually eat in the house but sometimes we go to restaurants

I like that it is clean and quite. It is mainly a residential area so there are not many businesses around

People. The houses are unique, near parks and schools and malls. Restaurant and gas station near. On bus route
