They are not what they appear to be

I am a resident at the orchards apartments and I moved in shortly after they were built. Yes I agree that apartment living brings many things like noise, children playing and some times animals. But I have a few complaints that are not just apartment living issues. First of all the units are very poorly put together which is the reason for the excessive cold in the winter. I have a gap in my door that is wide enough to almost see through and in the winter time the snow comes in also the amount of air that comes in through my second bedroom seems like there is not a window there at all. The sealent around my counters has loosened. I can see indentures in my ceilings and if you barely touch the walls they get dirty. Around the baseboards and windows sills the "wood" or what ever it is, is cracking. I choose the Orchards because of the location and school district and they look pretty good until you live in them and see them falling apart. I have not moved yet due to expenses and I wanted to stay in the school district. But I will not be renewing my lease this year. The Orchards are owned by the same people that own Stonegate Meadows which is a total Section 8 property and is known to be a bad complex and it appears that the Orchards is taking the same turn. Also I have had several neighbors in many of the apartments in my section move out within the first 30 - 90 days. I don't think my apartment is worth the $675 monthly rent. I definately recommend an alarm, I have one
