Issue #1: Parking
Parking sucks. Seriously, if you live on the east side, which most do, you will not find parking anywhere remotely near your pad. At first, I didn't mind; I'm not a lazy person and don't mind walking a few extra steps. However, it's a major issue when you're moving in/out, carrying groceries, walking in the rain, running late for work, etc. Parking WILL become an issue. Save yourself the time and don't even bother looking into these apartments.

Issue #2: Safety
If you're still reading, you might still be interested. That's fine. I applaud you for doing your research before signing the lease. In this respect, you're way ahead of me when I started looking. Now, the issue with safety: There are apartments directly south of here, literally within about 30 feet, that house gangbangers, dealers, prostitutes, cons, etc. and they don't mind coming over to start trouble. Remember me talking about living on the east side' Well, parking becomes an issue if you live on the east side but so does safety. The east side of the apartments face a fenceline only a few feet away, that's it. So, no one is around to witness any trouble like out in the open. Also, the area behind the east side, and around the apartments for that matter, is very poorly lit. Gangbangers poorly lit areas inept security easy route of escape = trouble.

Issue #3: Maintenance/Upkeep
I just moved in so I haven't experienced any problems with the apartment itself, but I have noticed a few things I don't like about the outside area nearby. Directly infront of my apartment door is a fence that is lying on the ground. I've talked to several neighbors who say it has been like that for months and it doesn't appear the management has any intentions of fixing the downed fence. This is a problem when I walk my dog, who always wants to step over the boards, which contain exposed nails. Also, the grounds near my apartment have no grass, which doesn't do well after a hard rain.

Issue #4: Management
MK (won't use full name) generally just has a sh*tty, holier-than-thou attitude. My brother has dealt with her when he rented from another apartment, which she also owns, and he mentioned how she tried to tack on fees and extra costs when he moved out. EG, his apartment would be spotless but she would claim she needed to hire a cleaner to come in, which just happens to cost a few hundred bucks.

Issue #5: Location
There's really not a lot nearby, within walking distance. Of course, considering the area's demographics, you probably shouldn't be walking too much anyways. If you're needed to pick up the simplest things, you'll end up having to drive quite a ways. The closest thing nearby is a 7-Eleven...wear your bullet-proof vest.



Best of luck in your search for an apartment.
