This used to be a nice place to live, then management started taking on section 8 housing families to come here and live...and thats where it went down hill. For lack of a better term they are letting every state approved riff raff family in here. And yes TWO peple have been shot here, one yesterday. Thats why I am writing this, do not live here. I thought it was great, an upgrade, I was very very wrong.

I do agree that management is taking in individuals who don't respect their own property let alone the property of the community. In my opinion it has nothing to do with section 8. It is under the control of the staff to screen and approve each family. The grounds are well maintained with the exception of the dumpsters, that could be people from outside PM dumping their crap on the ground outside the dumpsters.The apartments could use a little upgrade on the inside, such as new cabinets and not the painted over counter tops that we currently have. Overall, I think some improvements have been made under the new management. I know for a fact that the rif raft that did the shooting was a visitor of one of those PM residents that don't respect their community.Once they get in, it is hard to get them out.

The problems in the complex will never go away, because they have already moved in, and management does not care because they do not reside on the property. even the maintance stay somewhere else, so if a emergency occur it takes up to 2 hours for a response. i think the paying residence should have a choice of whether or not to live in a now section 8 community. when i firsh moved there it was not section 8, now i am scared for my life and can not get out of my lease.
