WHEN DRIVING INTO HANNIBLE GROVE EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT... BUT ONCE YOU GO DEEPER INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD IT GETS UGLY... OVERFLOWING TRASH, KIDS RUNNING AROUND AT LATE HOURS. DRUNKS OUTSIDE ON THE WEEKENDS. I HAVE INTERVIEWED A FEW PEOPLE AND THEY ALL SAID THEY HATE THE ROACHES IN THEIR APARTMENS, THE OFFICE STAFF ARE LAZY AND DONT FIX PROBLEMS RIGHT AWAY, TAKES THEM MONTHS JUST TO GET ONE LITTLE PROBLEM FIXED...RENT IS JUST GOING HIGHER AND HIGHER EVERY YEAR. BUT THERE ARE SOME GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS AREA... NICE NIEGHBORS,CLOSE TO 29, 175, 95, 108,CLOSE TO PLAZAS,SCHOOLS, SHOPPING MALLS, PUBLIC TRANSPORTAION IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. MAINTANCE HERE IT OK THEY NEED TO PUT MORE WORK AN ATTENTION TO THE HIDDEN AREAS AN DEEPER ENDS OF HANNIBLE GROVE. PARKING IS NOT A PROBLEM... THERE IS ENOUGHT PARKING HERE FOR EVERYONE... YOU MUST GET THERE EARLY IF U WANT TO BEST PARKING.. IF NOT YOU MUST PARK SOMEWHERE ELSE BUT THERE IS PARKING...I LIKE THE APARTMENT SPACE VERY ROOMY..THE KITCHEN SPACE IS GOOD BUT U MUST KEEP ALOT OF FOOD IN CONTAINERS CAUSE OF THE ROACH PROBLEM.. THEY ARE BUILDING WASHER AND DRYERS INSIDE OF EACH APARTMENTS. NEW WINDOW ARE BEING INSTALLE FOR BETTER ENEGERY SAVER... PLAYGROUNDS ARE OK FOR KIDS BUT NOT GOOD ENOUGHT TO PLAY FOR MORE THEN 20 MIN SINCE THERE ISNT MUCH FOR KIDS TO PLAY WITH.... THAT BIG REASON YOU WILL SEE KIDS PLAYING FOOTBALL IN THE STREET AND SOCCER... I BELIEVE THAT THE GROVE SHOULD INVEST MONEY ON A PLAY FIELD FOR KIDS TO KEEP THEM SAFE FROM HARM.... FROM 1-10 TEN BEING THE BEST ONE BEING THE LOWEST RATING ..I WILL RATE HANNIBAL GROVE A 6.6
