What Renters Like and Dislike

What Renters Like and Dislike About Ridgewood Madison

Restaurants that are in my area and the grocery store. We have a few restaurants and a Whole Foods store as well as other fast food restaurants very close by.

Close to businesses like restaurants, stores like grocery and department stores. Easy access to major roads and highways. Close to airport.

I like that a couple friends and my sister live really close. It's a nice spot near many stores. Even though everyone is pretty loud, it works both ways: I can play my music as loud as I want and no one complains. Shipping places (FedEx, UPS, and USPS) are very close by.

It's fairly quiet and clean overall. I enjoy all the parks and greenery. The nature spots are a bit of a hidden gem there.

During the summer months the neighborhood like to do outside activities with the children. We put together barbecues, water ballon fights and really have a wonderful time.

There are many bike paths and parks close by. Most businesses are friendly, but for some services, one does need a car. I really like the local bagel & coffee joint.
