This is a horrible, crime-ridden area and the management is dishonest.

I lived there from 8/96 to 12/02. A couple months before I moved out (because I purchased a home) they had been working on the roof of my apt building. It rained one night during the construction and my ceiling started leaking....and leaking....and leaking!! The maintenance man brought up a 5-gallon bucket to catch the water, but the water had spread in the ceiling covering the dining room. The ceiling eventually crashed in falling on my head and back and ruining my piano.
Stupidly I did not press charges or sue for the damage done to my belongings. My reward from them was that they tried to get me to pay for damage to my apt caused by the cave-in. when I adamantly refused, they put the non-paid charge on my credit history and it has followed me around since. I have video and pictures of the damage caused by their faulty work and I would post them here if I could.
Crime in this area is awful. My next-door neighbors were busted for drug-dealing. The SWAT team broke down their door at 4 a.m. just like you see on TV.
A murder occured outside my bedroom window.
My children were threatened by a would-be child abductor one day on the way to a playground.
My van was broken into and the criminals tried to steal it. I saw them and called 911.
It's sad what a single mother has to put up with because decent apartments in safe areas are outrageously expensive.
Ask the local police how often they have responded to crimes in this neighborhood.
