    Printer's Square Apartments is a great place to live with its amenities, secured entrance, and commute to almost any destination to get to. Its close to all sorts of transportation and having access to the fitness area is a great fit for exercise regime. A great place to live and affordable for its location.

    I've been living here for a couple months and I love the area. It is very quiet at night, but only a short walk to the bars. It's also only a 15 minute drive to the Canton area.
