What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Uptown Dallas

I love the people in my building. I love the views from my unit. I love all the activity. There are many stores and restaurants nearby.

It'sa lot of action and has a lot of nearby places to go to like restaurants. There's also a bunch of parks and convenience stores nearby

I like to go to the KFC nearby which is quiet,The convenience store nearby is also a good choice. Where do I like to go for a coffee after work

The traffic in my neighborhood is very convenient, and there are many shopping malls, delicious food and places for children to play. It is also very convenient to go out and take children

Nothing really unique it is a peaceful place in my opinion. Good people that are friendly. We all get along really well. Not known for a bad crime area.

it is a very quiet and healthy place, apart from being central it has a good place to go, food, parks, tourist places, good points to spend and distract for a long time
