The actual apartments are decent. It seems like the people that live in them are very inconsiderate. I've had two upstairs neighbors with kids that have made excessive noise. When I tried to go up to talk to these people I got an attitude that I dislike very much in today's society. I am speaking of the "I have kids so I don't have to follow the rules or have them follow the rules" attitude that seems to be so prevalent today. I'd like to know when this changed and why I didn't get the memo. Just because you have a kid doesn't mean that you get to ignore the noise rules. It's just the same as if you'd have loud music playing. Keep your kids quiet people. All it takes is a little discipline. I understand that kids aren't always going to respond to what you're saying, but letting them run amok isn't the answer either. You're not going to stifle their creativity by giving them a bedtime.

Also, parking is a little hard to come by right up next to the buildings, but there are plenty of spots in the back. There's no excuse for people parking where there aren't spots. There's a little roundabout in front of the office which hopefully you don't want to get through at night because you can't. There are also little side lots by a couple of the buildings which people park in the entrances to. So if you're leaving before they do you can't see. I've almost been hit a couple of times. You'd think people would know that these aren't parking places, but if they do, they don't seem to care. All it would take is a little yellow paint making them extensions of the fire lane and boom, no more problems. Also be on the lookout for a guy in an orange camaro. He has to be one of the most inconsiderate people ever. He loves to use his horn, and drive incredibly fast through the parking lot.

So yeah, if you happen to be the only person living here, it would be great. The grounds look nice, the office staff are friendly enough, and the actual apartments themselves are probably one of the better apartments I've lived in. But your fellow apartment dwellers just don't make it worth the price you have to pay to live here.

You live in an apartment. I have the perfect solution to your problem! If you don't want to hear the neighbors that live upstairs either- move to the top floor, or move to a house! Preferably the latter.

Speaking of memo's, I guess I didn't get the memo that an apartment was supposed to be a quiet sanctuary. You have to realize that when you live in an apartment, you are going to hear absolutely everything that goes on upstairs, downstairs, and side to side. The walls are thin, the construction is cheap, which is what happens when they are built out of plywood and toothpicks. If you want silence, build your own house out on a farm and so you can be the recluse that you are. If not, get used to the fact that when you live in an apartment building, you are going to hear your neighbors. I hear the beep of the microwave in the adjacent apartment when I am trying to unwind in my meditation room (aka the watercloset/toilet/bathroom/pooper) ... I guess I should complain that these people are eating hot pockets at 2am, which, after all, is the same as having loud music. I am going to tell them to plan their meals better so that they don't interrupt my meditation. You should take any issues up with the management in the apartment complex instead of harassing your neighbors. I'm glad that you are the model parent. With all of your experience as a parent, you should know that young kids are going to run, fall, and bump into things, which causes the phenomenon called 'noise'. If you want to discipline my kids and give me parenting advice, you can start by pay for their college tuition. Send the check, then I'll listen. You are probably one of those chronic complainers who will never be happy. But nicely worded commentary. If you want to solve your problems, here are your options: 1 - move out of the apartment into a little house on the prairie. 2 - if you can't afford to move out, move to a top floor apartment (this means that nobody is above you... but you could always complain to mother nature that the birds are dropping deuces too loudly). 3 - if you don't do either of these, then stop complaining... you have a solution and you just like to play the role of the victim. I would love to sit here and write some more, but I need to give a courtesy flush and beat on my neighbor's door. I guess hot pocket time came early tonight! Darn beeping microwave. What an inconsiderate "I eat hot pockets so I don't have to follow the rules" attitude. Oh wait... I live in an apartment... on the 2nd floor, so I'll just continue watching Jerry Springer, dreaming of my next trip to the WalMart, and wondering why they are called apartments if they are all stuck together?. Which leads me to my final thought: If a baby in a third floor apartment falls and makes a noise... and only a complete idiot on the second floor is there to hear it... does anyone really care?

Wow, some people amaze me. I have had an inconsiderate downstairs neighbor as well. One that thinks its okay to come upstairs to complain at midnight when everyone is sleeping. Talk about inconsiderate! Here is a bit of information some may have not been privy to. This is an apartment. You live with others. People are allowed to walk around upstairs. Its amazing that people live in an apartment and expect total silence. I have lived in many apartments and have heard all of my neighbors, but I have no complaints because that is what comes with living in an apartment. My downstairs neighbor thinks he has the right to dictate when you can walk around the apartment. Both the times they complained about the noise, that was apparently from my child, he was in bed. And only a person that is completely in the dark would be presumptious enough to think that if there is noise upstairs that their kids are not behaved. Maybe we should chain them up? Would that be the solution? Anyway, the noise is far from excessive. The footsteps at night, that are apparently so bothersome, are from the adults walking around, my child rarely is up past ten. Also, he only weighs twenty pounds. I'm sure this is really shaking the floors. I have seen people here with much bigger dogs. Some people think they have a right to complete silence when they live in an apartment. Come on lets get realistic. If it is that big of a problem, here is a great idea, GET A HOUSE OR LIVE ON THE TOP FLOOR. Not a difficult solution. The apartments are great here, please don't be swayed from choosing these apartments by someone that is not in touch with reality.
