Do NOT Move Here!!!!!!!

Years at this apartment: 2002 - 2002
Oh, where to begin comments on The Falls at Duraleigh. I moved here back in Feb. of 2002, and it has gone downhill drastically since I've been here. I moved here from Ohio, and needed a place that was going to be affordable BUT safe at the time. The apartments overall are okay and actually have somewhat of a nice layout, however they are VERY small. Once you step out of the apartment it is a whole different world. When I was taken on the "sales tour" of course I was shown the model which was very nice. They have no W/D hookups in the apartment so you are left with the laundry rooms, which are very poorly kept up and dark. Safety is a huge issue here at the Falls. Since I moved in the rent dropped quite a bit which in turn brought in another type of tenant. I personally have called the police while living here to report vandalism to cars which is a weekly occurance.
The noise is absolutely unbearable...it seems as if everyone sleeps during the day and is in the parking lots at night. I myself never leave my apartment anymore at night unless someone is with me. That is how unsafe I feel here.
On another note about the facilities and maint. I came home after dark to an apartment in June 95 degrees outside and my apartment was at 90 degrees. My air conditioner was not working and it was going to be misserable to sleep. So I called for our supposedly 24 hr. maintenance. I was told that no one could come out and fix this problem because an clogged sink is considered an emergency not that your air isn't working. A maintenance man did call me to inform me that it was too dangerous for them to make calls at night. Now that should be a hint that this community is not safe.
As far as the fitness room goes....don't bother. Most of the machines have recently been removed and the ones remaining don't work. Also, you will get ran out of the fitness room by people that want to sit on the machines and watch cable television. Alright, well I hope this has helped some poor sole who is considering moving to The Falls at Duraleigh. I would strongly suggest you don't especially if you are a female living by yourself. I was new to the area and didn't know any better....luckly I only have a 6 month lease and will be gone here shortly. Good Luck!
