I lived at Worthing Hills twice...Why u ask' BECAUSE ITS A DAMN GOOD DEAL!!!! I have yet to find a better price for the apartment i got. First of all they are old... that's not anybody's fault...show me a house that didnt need maintenance when it was 30 years old. The ladies in the office were always really nice to me... and I loved all my neighbors.. the only reason I moved out is cuz i had to move to a different part of town.. and for the people that always ----- about the car break ins and stuff getting stolen at the laundry rooms... there is no way an apartment complex can prevent that...i now live in a "safe part of town " but my neighbor's car got stolen...go figure...it's everywhere people. and dont leave your ----. thats your own fault. If I ever get a chance to move back south I'm moving back....

I lived at Willow Creek/Worthing Hills before and during the original reviewer's tenure, and conclude he/she was among many residents so mentally distorted by drugs and alcohol they were oblivious to the place's glaring problems and inadequacies. Also, he/she probably owned little to no property of value--valuable property being a major liability at Willow Creek/Worthing Hills. Cars obviously get stolen regardless of location, but Willow Creek/Worthing Hills employed security guards and featured electronic security gates. Problem was, drivers simply plowed straight through the security gates (in stolen cars, no doubt), which Willow Creek then failed to repair or maintain in otherwise timely fashion. They kept the same security codes without altering them for long periods, allowing anybody access. The security guard was visible only on rare occasion, and more than once I saw him partying--drink in hand--with some of my more festive neighbors. Not surprisingly, my car was stolen despite being locked and parked under a parking lot light right below my unit! I've concluded the security guard made off with it after a mad night of partying since management (and the APD, for that matter) didn't seem too concerned over the event. The sad thing is that when I first arrived in 1998 or so the place was actually nice: inexpensive, huge rooms with brand new refrigerator, oven and dishwasher, new carpet, plus a beautiful view of the Austin skyline now obscured my new apartment projects. Management was super friendly and the few problems I experienced were addressed immediately by competent and friendly maintenance workers. But management changed hands several times, resulting in increasingly higher rent (started at $325 all bills paid including cable, and ended at over $500 with no cable when I left) with no corresponding increase in quality of life. New management repainted (not repaved) the parking lot to accommodate car thieves and loiterers at one point, but once they started improving the water pipes life became total hell because frequently they'd shut off the water for long periods and only give about a half day's prior notice. Aside from the screeching, unsupervised kids who ran around all day like street urchins high from sniffing glue, during the evenings droves of hispanic workers living 10-12 to a unit would arrive and hang out in the parking lot or by the sand volleyball pit (apparently volleyball is a national pastime in some Central and South American countries) drinking Bud Light, broadcasting Tejano music throughout the entire complex, and urinating in full view; I was leaving with a date one night and as soon as we turned the corner from my stairwell to walk to my car we encountered a young fellow just urinating on a tree like a dog, totally oblivious to any sense of community decorum, much less laws addressing such behavior. Noise was a huge problem, and resonated throughout the entire complex as if amplified from some device in the main office for our collective enjoyment--this was probably just the result of living in poorly laid-out, old concrete and rebar structure, which vibrated endlessly from every imaginable audiophonic source. I moved out of the place after catching some non-english speaking punk red-handed while he domonstrated to his homies and their girlfriends how to depressurize my vehicle's (the vehicle which replaced my stolen one) tires with a sharp object. I'm 6'8", 285 lbs., and at the time felt no compunction about confronting this fool and ripping his throat out bare-handed (despite my temptation to brain him with the pipe I carried up my sleeve) but instead just told him and his posse to move on. This event finally made me realize that Willow Creek/Worthing Hills was a bad place, having a bad effect on my otherwise good character, and so I moved on as well.

In early 2007, the gates starting working again and cards were issued, but by April, the gates were wide open 24/7.

If we wanted air condition going home to my apartment wasnt the place to go. They act soooo stupid when it comes to fixing a freaken ac, but the OFFICE has great ac. I mean it feels real good in there. I always enjoyed having the chance to go in the office and complain about my ac just so I could sit there in there ac
