Nice place, but management is going down

Years at this apartment: 2004 - 2007
 
I lived in this community for the last 3 years, but moved out recently.

Pros:
1. Great location -really, one of the best locations in the triangle, right on the golf course.
2. Nice apartments - all said and done, the apartments are really nice.
3. Good community - in terms of safety/neighbors/upkeep.
4. Maintenance - is good, not great. Their response time really varies - it took them a day to fix the microwave, but over a month to install screen doors to the patio and a poor job at that.

Cons:
1. The walls are paper thin - you can hear every noise your neighbor makes, and I mean every noise.
2. Dog poop everywhere - the dog owners do not pick up poop - and management does nothing.
3. Management - there have been some changes in the management staff in the last year or so, and they have become increasingly incompetent and rude. They look for every opportunity to fleece money out of the residents by invoking absurd "regulations".

For example, I installed a satellite dish and notified the management that it was mounted separately on its own platform, with no damage to the property - not even screws. They still "notified" me (by sticking notices on the door - they were too busy to give me a call) about violation of property rules. So I talked to the staff and told them that the dish was installed with no damage to the property. Inspite of this, they put a ladder to my patio and started removing the dish when I was not home. Luckily, I returned just in time and threatened to sue them to make them stop.

After I moved out recently, they are refusing to return my security deposit, citing "damage" to the apartment. I have lived in four different communities in Morrisville and each time had my deposit refunded in full, no questions, coz I maintain my home very well. This time, they just want my money. Im gonig to fight them tooth and nail.
