Stolen motorcycle, false fire alarms

The complex is well-kept and nice because it's new. We thought we were living in a pretty secure place and we felt safe but that changed after we discovered my husband's motorcycle missing from the parking area coming back from our two week Christmas holiday. It was never recovered. More than 3 times the fire alarm went off in the early morning hours shocking and waking us all up only to find out it was a false alarm. Management later circulated a memo stating they were having a problem with some vandals screwing up the smoke detectors. I had many sleepless nights after that trying not to think about the fire alarm jolting me from my sleep. Loud college kids hanging out at their patios late through the night can be a problem some nights. You get only one assigned parking spot and be prepared to pay $50 a month reserved parking for your second car. This is strictly enforced with the security patrol paying more attention to vehicles that don't have the parking sticker rather than watching out for suspicious characters lurking in the garage trying to steal your car. We didn't have any second thoughts about moving out after our 9 months lease ended.
