This complex recently changed their name from Centennial Village Apartments to Bucks Landing Apartments. But don't be fooled. This is the worst I've ever seen. If you're considering coming here to live, ask to see the actual apartment before you sign the lease. This will be your first warning sign because you will not be allowed to see an actual apartment. The only apartment they will show you is the model. The floors creak badly and you can hear everything in the apartments above and/or below your apartment. I live on the second floor and every night I can hear the guy above me snoring in his bed. The police and fire trucks are always in here. I've had problems with roaches, spiders, centipedes, and mice. I had to change the locks on my bedroom doors because after a visit from the maintenace staff while my wife and I were at work, one of the rings in my wife's wedding set just disappeared. I always see condoms in the parking lot next to our cars. This place is so bad that I have to walk outside to the parking lot to accompany my wife inside when she comes in from work. You can smell everything your neighbor is cooking from inside your apartment. A lot of the tenants just blow through the STOP signs near the entrance to the compound. I think they need to put those signs in spanish. I've almost been run over twice. Because this complex is a little cheaper than some of the others in the area, it generally tends to attract some less than desireable characters. My car has by dented and scracthed in the parking lot.

If you value your personal safety and property, do not come here to live. I've been here almost three years and it has progressively gotten worse every year. At the end of my current lease, I'm gone. Don't make the same mistake I made!!!!

I have never heard anything good about this complex. Ever. Not when it was (tr)Ashwood, Centennial, and the now Bucks Landing. My friend is on fixed income and she needed a place in a short amount of time. She got the keys and started by bringing in some cleaning supplies but the big move wasn't going to happen for a while, but there were roachies.. always roachies. Dead ones, live ones, little ones, especially in the fridge, and my friend has nervous tendencies so she didn't need more aggravation and pulled out. As an observer and her friend, the carpeting at the doors and in the halls were absolutely worn to the rubber, which was sticky and dark with soil. The overall apartment was functionally clean and nice and that is really all it has going for it. There were kids hanging out of the windows in the other units, people clogging the steps when you're clearly trying to carry something into the building, I've heard that sometimes they watch to see what you bring in. Sorry, dude.. don't ever move here if you have a choice. If they get enough complaints, they need to shut them down one building at a time and bomb them for bugs and rebuild them.. (or blow them up). It's South philly's Southwark in the burbs. No offense to the spanish speaking community, but you should learn English to live in a better place than this. If you come to our country for a better life, you deserve better than Bucks Landing.
