Archstone Emerald Park

Three years - Still very happy From: mtrmes02 Date posted: 5/16/2008 Years at this apartment: 2005 - 2008   Well, the 4/1/08 review was a little over the top, but I do love living here. The two bedroom/two bath unit is a good size for my family. The pool is beautiful. The maintenance staff is outstanding - prompt and competent. I live on the quiet corner which is wonderful. Lots of sun! My rent went up $300 this year but that is just a result of the rental market. Hoping it will go down in 2009. I plan to stay for another three years until my kids finish the outstanding elementary school across the street. If I could change something, I would have better locks on the security gates. They are always broken. Archstone blames the tenents for breaking them. But, come on, if they were decent locks, they wouldn't be so easy to break. Also, the drive thru security gates are prompted open all to often. Maybe an after-hours security guard would solve the mystery of the broken gates. It would also greatly reduce the number of car break-ins. We have a call-in security service. I have only called them once. They were too busy that night and couldn't come to the property for 2 hours. Hmmmm.
