It is a quiet place to live despite that it borders WMU's campus-I have no complaints although I paid $705 for a one bedroom (that's a mortgage payment for house's priced in the 100,000 range')

The place really went downhill when new ownership took over a couple of years ago! Everything seems to be falling apart. I lived on the second floor, the staircase that lead to my door was becoming a real hazard. Nails were falling out and the boards began to warp, some sticking up six inches or so. I had mice several times, birds and squirrels lived in the walls (try to fall asleep with critters running around - what a nightmare)! A squirrel even made it into the apartment one night. I chased him around in my underwear in the winter for a half hour or so with a broom until I finally got him out the door! - Nice huh? The trails are a total joke? They are overgrown with weeds and shrubs you might want to take a pair of clippers along with you on your hike. Oh, I hope you don't plan on playing tennis here - the ball will definitely not bounce straight - there are cracks everywhere on the surface and a huge pond resides smack dab on the center of the playing surface - good luck?? Parking is a real nightmare! I hope you don't plan on having guests over. The guest parking was like a half-mile or so up the road from my complex - how nice in the winter. The towing service hangs around like vultures. My buddy???s car got towed on a Saturday morning after about 20 minutes after he got over. The towing co. towed his car all the way across town and charged me $90 bucks! I wouldn't be surprised if management is getting a kickback from the towing co. Finally there is a huge population of big dogs at the complex. The grass is stained yellow and you better watch out where you step ??? yuck!! I paid all utilities except for trash, which was always full forcing everyone to put their bags on the sidewalk and curb - how attractive? Water and sewer usually cost an extra $30 a month ??? what the f*#k???? If none of this would bother you, than move in, just be warned!
