OMG...I used to love this place because of the affordable rent and my old neighbors were awesome! Well, Well, Well....about a few days ago, I had the pleasure of having my back window blown out with 8 bullets! I was a victim of mistaken identity according to the police ( This Sucks) The manager ( Leslie) made me feel as if it was my fault! This situation had absolutely nothing to do with me! The only thing Leslie (the manager) could say was .My grandson live in the corridor next too you and I really fear for his safety.....(FYI..Her son and daughter-in-law are staying in the apartment that she is supposed to be staying in "on site manager "..Yea right! I also had the pleasure of hearing fighting all the time and on one particular night; my ghetto ass neighbor was stabbed in the parking lot and ran over by her ghetto ass so-called friends. If I were you all, I would not rent from these people! The maintenance staff and grounds keeping staff are really awesome! If you want to be awaken by gunfire, people arguing, loud music, a bright ass police search lights in your window, this is the place to live. This is not a place to properly raise you kids! I would never ever do that! A wide majority of the "good citizens" have moved out or in the process of moving out! I would not suggest anyone with class to move out to Brookpines!! I'm just waiting to my lease is up and praying that I or someone else does not get hurt! Keep in mind.....Cheap rent comes with a lot of consequences! I hate this place and TRUST ME>>>>> It s ONLY GOING TO GET WORST FROM HERE..the economy is bad!

The management there sucks. Your situation sounds just like what I experienced there. You fall victim to a crime and the management had no empathy. That place is a freakin dump. But if you think about it, who would actually want to work there as a property manager. You have to think about what kind of desperate person would take that job at BROOK PINES! I bet they have a high turnover rate. Or you just get low quality uninvested personell to manage the place. That place is an absolute nightmare!!! I would also be willing to bet that they would FAIL an audit of any kind from any government agency. Somebody needs step in before more people die.

I've been there and done that at Brook Pines aka Brook Crimes and everything these people are saying is TRUE. Just call the Columbia Police Department.
