Could be better

There are alot of changes that need to be made at Belcrest. I've been here since 1999 and I've seen the property go downhill. I can say the roach infestation is not as bad since Belcrest changed the company that exterminates the units. Maintenance could improve. All of the washer and dryers need to bee replaced and as large as the laundry rooms are they need more washers and dryers. Every apartment building needs to have locks on the front doors with only the tenants of that particular building having keys. Intercom systems for entry should be installed, that would stop the kids from Northwestern High using the basements and laundry rooms for places to smoke their weed. Having a security force to patrol the complex would definately make the tenants feel a little more secure. The area has become a haven for crime, you should want to feel safe in your neighborhood. For what we pay as tenants, the units appliances should be better, the stoves and refrigerators are outdated and the dishwashers needed to be serviced and maintained periodically. I try to make the best of my living arrangements, because right now I'm just not able to move so I try to make the best of what I have. As much as maintenace comes into our apartments we should not be having the problems that we have. I had an ir conditioning unit replaced in 2003 and the old unit is still sitting on my balcony and it's ironic that we keep getting messages about what we can have on our balconies. The tenants are good neighbors and will look out for each other if you carry yourself as a respectable person. You're going to find bad apples wherever you go. Yes, Belcrest could make alot of improvements and this would make it a better complex overall. Would I recommend this place to a friend' Not if it remains the way it is today. Just remember, while you live it Belcrest for whatever reason take care of what's yours to make it better for your living conditions.
