Overall Fox Lake is a good place to live except, there are a few things wrong. Number one: There is a issue with parking and I can't understand why. The office staff is confindent that it would be taken care of but, it's been atleast 5 months since they have implentmented the stickers on cars but, no tow trucks ever come by and check it out! The office shouldn't assure their residents that the problem would be taken care of if they can't keep up with it.
Number two: Speeding is an issue here as well, eventhough Fox Lake has speed limit signs posted at both entrances people are just too stupid to follow the rules, there are little kids that play outside and all it takes is someone to be careless or the car becomes out of control and a kid or a person gets really hurt. So, I know that it's costly but, why not put in speed bumps'
Number three: People are really inconsiderate here meaning you will hear loud speakers blaring at midnight. It's really inmature for people to be acting like that.
And lastly Fox Lake says on their website that their building are heated well meaning low electric bills but, in all honesty plan on spending between $130 to $250 a month for electric. Since we have lived here we haven't seen an electric bill under $130 a month.
One other thing bugs are a huge problem, eventhough they have staff come around every few months and spray it still doesn't work so I suggest going to the store and investing in Ben-gal which is a bug spray. And it works much better than the stuff that they use.
I must say though office staff is very nice and if something happens to your apartment it is usually taken care of within a day. Some of the issues I have listed is beyond their control but, there are ways that it can be fixed.
