Best neighborhoods to rent in Martinsville?

I grew up here but left for a while. The unemployment rate is 1.5%, which is pretty low. You can expect to pay around $2,183 for rent here. Poverty rate is 0.6%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Martinsville sits at 164.2 per 100K. There's a real sense of community in certain neighborhoods. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

Pros:
- Growing food scene
- Low crime in most areas
- Good internet infrastructure

Cons:
- Limited public transit
- Cold winters
- High property taxes
- Not enough green space
