Info on Garden City (where to stay, apartments, to rent)

[kblume]

Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me anything about Garden City. For example housing/apartment markets, where to stay away from (bad areas), where to go (good areas), what are some fun things to do, etc. I am visiting at the end of the month and was wondering if anybody have any suggestions on where to go and what to do when I am there.
Thanks.

There's a Zoo in Garden - I believe it is still free. It's actually nice. You can walk through or Drive through it.

That's all I can think of - that's fun.

Here's another discussion about Garden.

I actually just got back from Garden City yesterday. I was checking it out because I just got a job there. There is also a really nice public pool. It is very hard to find houses/apartments to rent or buy. I would suggest taking whatever you can find (in a good area) and wait for something better to open up if you don't like where you are at. I thought the people were very friendly and helpful. I read some of the other blogs before I left and was very worried about moving out there because of all the negative things that were said. After seeing it myself I am much more comfortable with moving out there.
