I wouldn't move in

The apartments seem very nice when you move in, that is true. The landscaping seems to be very nice and the lake is wonderful. When you are first shown an apartment here, they seem spacious, and nicely done.

Well I lived there for over a year, and by the end, there were too many things going wrong. Leaking sinks, walls are too thin you can hear other people's front doors closing, you can hear every movement from upstairs, and you can hear the next door neighbors tv's/stereo's as if they are just in the next room, not the next apartment.

Their staff are very unfriendly and aren't helpful at all. They don't give you the 24 hr's notice that someone will be stoping by as stated in your lease, they are uncooperative when you try to explain yourself or the situation at hand. There were times where there needed to be multiple phone calls made just to get an expert out to the house to fix something. I personally have had multiple problems with not getting enough notice that something major was going to be taking place the next day, or I didn't get a notice at all.

The parking isn't all that great either. The spaces are small and so close together you feel like you are parking in a sardine can instead of a parking lot.

The security is really lacking. This is a "gated community" but the gates are NEVER closed. Even at night there is always one set of gates open. I came home late one night and there were police officers crawling all over the apartment complex, and the person they were after was right across the way from me, makes you wonder who the heck they are letting in there doesn't it' There was also a time very early in the morning where there were gun shots right out side my window.

Their "playground" is non-existant. You get a little play set and 2 swings. The area is surrounded by a grassy area, but be warned don't let your kids play in it, it's covered in dog poop.

Worst place to live over all.

Are you serious? It's like saying a new, nice neighborhood wont have gang violence. This is America.
