It wasn't nice...

I live here only for a while, but in that time many a fun adventures occured:

1) My boyfriend and I came home at around 6 one evening to find the apartment across from us broken in to. The guy came back thirty minutes later and said he had only been gone for about two hours. Its like someone was watching him leave. On top of that, they took his cd's and an FM radio but left his guitar signed by Stevie Ray Vaughn...damn thugs wouldn't know good stuff if it bit them in the....

2) The apartment behind us caught fire and they management tried to charge the tenants for the damages...it took them three days to even look at the aparmtent...

3) I saw the cops and tow trucks on a nightly basis. One time I came home at about 2am and there were nine cop cars. We asked what was going on and one kind cop indulged that there was someone shot, but they couldn't find him. They had the assalant, but the victim was on the run... in complex none-the-less.

4) The grounds are on the most broke-up, unlevel grounds I have ever witnessed. They were constantly tearing it up. THERE IS NO PARKING.

5) I don't believe anyone there worked. We would leave and people would be sitting on the steps...we would come home and those same people would be sitting on the steps.

ON THE PLUS SIDE:

I never had a bug problem. They actually had pest control on a regular basis.

Sound wasn't too bad, only when fights broke out in the "parking lot".

My apartment had new carpet. This is probably because someone was killed in there prior to my residence...
