    "Merced station specifically is so amazing! So excited to be renewing here! This community has been a great place to live, and the by-bedspace leasing makes it easy for me to save money while focusing on my studies. The environment is comfortable, the amenities are convenient, and everyone here is genuinely friendly. I’m really happy to call this place home for another year! "

    "Merced i actually a pretty alright city to live in. There isn't a lot of social sites or things to do but the city is definitely growing and expanding into a nice place. The crime and violence has significantly decreased through out the passing years and the school all seem to do a great job with our education. It's definitely a much cleaner and nicer city than nearby areas like Fresno or Modesto. "
