Don't consider this place as a home. The management are horrible. I enjoyed this apartment up until I had to deal with management. They are rude and genuinely don't care about you. If you have a minor question about the lease? They wont respond. If… See More >

      I enjoy living in the community. It is safe, however people come and steal your Honda car tires. I do see the police come by more often, hopefully that fixes the issue. Otherwise the community is fine.

        This is a great place to live. everything is well kept. The atmosphere is very good, there's no excessive noise, also the management always make sure if a complaint is made, it gets taken cared of. MAJOR plus is there are no insects.

            My experience is fair right now. I say fair because I am not pleased with the rate of parking-there was a $30 increase made in August. Additionally, although its expected post covid I am not pleased with the rent increase coming up.

                                            It's been good so far. Convenient grocery store and close to downtown silver spring. Close to DC and is quieter than being directly in the downtown area. Neighbors are somewhat friendly and respectful. Great community to live in.

                                              We moved in October 2022, so we can not speak to the long term living experience but the move-in process and everything leading up to it was great.
