SOMA Residences

Pretty good place to live ... From: -Anonymous- Date posted: 1/4/2006 Years at this apartment: 2004 - 2006   I loved living here. The rent price was great - I had an amazing little (very little) loft on the 4th floor. The surrounding area's not so safe but I always entered from the secured garage so I never had a problem. My neighbors were quiet and I never heard a noise the 2 years I lived there. It's super close to downtown and shopping. The only bad thing about SOMA is the surrounding area and the fact that they mix section 8 people into the building. There are definitely some shady characters that live in the building but they pretty much keep to themselves. I've never had a problem. The management is awesome and keeps the place running beautifully. The units and facilities (gym and laundry) are great too. Try to live on the 4th floor - I lived on the 3rd floor the first year and it's so much better on the 4th. It's quieter (I don't think there are any section 8 tenants on the 4th floor), brighter, air conditioned hallways, much cooler in the summer (temperature) and the lofts are awesome.
