Hi, I'm one of those college students that live there. I'm not noisy, but I know of a few that are. I don't know of any other college but my own that has student housing here, just us. Well the Fire alarm went off last night. When that happens, there are several doors in that halls that automatically shut. I was anything but scared, just annoyed. There are false alarms all the time. In fact, the smoke detectors in my apartment were so sensitive I decided to dismantle them. They would go off when I was cooking when I flipped the meat! Apart from that, I really don't have any problem with Avalon. It's pretty quite, and I haven't had anything stolen from me here, no tires slashed or anything. I have noticed that the sidewalk around it is constantly covered with cars, probably because they don't want to pay the extra $50. A parking space on the street will remain open for about thirty seconds before someone else takes it. The people here are pretty quite, meaning they keep to themselves and try not to pay attention to you. Some think that's a good thing. Some like attention. Whatever. It's also in the middle of a bunch of business centers, so there's very little community outside. There's a small deli restaurant just down the block from it, but that food is weird over there. That's the closest thing to a fast food place for about ten blocks. Then there's the Howard Hugh's center with it's restaurants. There's an Albertson's and a Longs Drugs about six or seven blocks away. Well anyway, I'm sorry some people have had a bad time here, like those guys below this comment, but I like living in Avalon. I think it's a quite little place where I can relax and study.
