Resident 2014

I would NOT recommend moving here. We moved into Mission Bay because our last place had increased our rent ridiculously for a one bedroom. The price was appealing and we thought we could save a little money now that I have a really good job and be closer to work at the same time. We are paying for that now. Three weeks before move in we were asked to change our move in date because the apartment we were promised wasn't set to be moved out of until a few days before our move in date but our date was nonnegotiable so they assigned us a different apartment and said it would be ready. We signed our lease and went to move in and none of the closet doors closed, the water pressure sucked but was worse in the master bath, there were stains on the linoleum in the kitchen, the second bathroom fan didn't work and neither did the tub. We asked multiple times about the water, I could have gotten a better shower out of a watering can. We were told they would look into it...and they did twice out of the 6 times we asked, one guy agreed it was bad but did nothing, the second said it was our fault for having a different shower head, but even with their shower head it was the same. They never fixed it, we had to buy our own low water pressure shower head to even get the soap out of my hair. They never fixed anything actually, not one thing and still haven't, that was 3 months ago. The neighbors mostly mind their own business but the thumping from upstairs is getting tiresome. We also have smoke coming into our bedroom by the head of the bed, from another apartment. I don't know who's it is but it makes my life miserable as an asthmatic. The children here are hooligans, they ride around in packs on their bikes down the middle of the road, never move out of the way for a car, and harass you after they've made you come to a stand still. I don't walk outside alone at night at all. If it weren't for all that I'd rate neighborhood higher since the location to everything you need is nice. The grounds are only sometimes managed well. I see trash pile up outside the only trash compactor we have to throw trash in, I've even seen some lazy guy throw his trash from inside his car to the steps of the compactor. Some trash doesn't even make it as far as the compactor, someone has taken to stacking it at the base of one of the trees. To make matters worse...the birds have a hay day over it and spread the trash all over the complex. The grounds keeper here has a hard enough time keeping the one and only dog poop can from overflowing, forget about the mess the birds and unconsiderate people make. There are cigarette buts, chicken bones, wrappers, and more all over the grounds and buildings. There are even new paint splatters all the way up the stairs from them painting something...but they don't care. Oh, and the guys that mow the lawn...they run over a new sprinkler head or three every time they come because we get to listen to and walk by the geysers that the sprinklers are now and those don't get fixed either. The current manager in the office is aggressive, unprofessional, and likes to bait people when they come to her with problems. She likes to tell them not to raise their voice at her or she'll call the cops, even when they are not yelling or shouting, it makes them angry, the problem never gets solved, and she doesn't care who hears this ridiculous display of unprofessionalism. I've seen it happen twice now and I avoid her at all costs. She treats everyone like they are trash, even when they are not. I make plenty of money but I thought I could save money by getting a cheaper rent so I could eventually move out of state. I wish I had opted to pay $1,012 for a different apartment complex instead of the $816 here, it isn't worth the ---- we put up with. We will not be renewing our lease and a year is much too long a wait to get out of this place.
