What Renters Like and Dislike About Blaine

My neighborhood is unique because all of the neighbors watch out for each other. Sushi king its a local business I enjoy

The most unique thing about my neighborhood is the people in it. There are plenty of things to do around my neighborhood and friendly people.

Its close to restaurants, grocery stores and also has two very well maintained parks and the sidewalks are also well maintained

its close to most everything and neighbors all pretty much know or know of, each other. theres very little crime here in my hood as well.

Very friendly neighbors with a lot of activity in terms of walking, talking, stores, kids. There are a few good things nearby like gas stations and grocery.

We have homes from the 70s-80s with interesting layouts that are no longer made. There's a nice hidden bike/walk path that takes you to different parts of the neighborhood. Close to local restaurant called Roadside that has great food.
