Place is going to hell

I moved in here in May. The staff was very friendly and helpful, both before, during and immediately after move-in. Their rental rate was unbeatable and the community was nice and quiet for the first month or 2 i was there. However, around late June/early July, it seemed quite a few people moved out and they had lots of vacancies. It seemed like the property owners (Tribute Properties) decided to sacrifice acceptance standards to raise their occupancy because there has been a noticeable drop in the quality of life in this community since the summer began. There have been weekly police calls for domestic disputes and it's rumored someone was killed a couple of weeks ago. Kids are always running around unsupervised and cars are often broken into. Also, I'm guessing not coincidentally, only one member of the friendly and helpful office staff was retained when this all started. Why replace a helpful staff with one that is letting the place go to hell, while letting anyone and their brother move into the place to boost occupancy' Why, that sounds like greed to me. The kicker is there are more people working there now than when I moved in, and it seems less gets done. When at the nearby grocery store, I've heard more than once, "this area used to be so nice and quiet, then those apartments opened on the corner and now it's going to hell." Not the kind of thing you like to hear about your home from area residents....doesn't make you feel all that safe. But yesterday was the clincher that made me write this review. I get home from work and a TV goes flying off the second floor balcony of one of the apartments of my building! Does that sound like a neighbor you'd like to have' I went into the office to ask about the incident and they chuckled!!!!! What if I had been walking there or what if my car was parked in the spot where the TV landed' Doesn't seem all that funny to me! I'm going to get out of here ASAP. STAY AWAY!!!
