Was great, but now...

Years at this apartment: 2008 - 2009
 
We lived here for a year, really only moving because we needed a 2 bedroom.
The good: The property ammenities are great, the view of the sunset is amazing (we has an apartment over looking the canyon), the apartment was perfectly sized (until we needed bigger), the grounds are well maintained (see below), and maintenance was always polite and helpful.
Some small things over our last 5 or so months, about the same time some new people came into the office.
The bad: The walls and flooring are THIN! The utilities are outrageous! (thanks Perdenales), parking is mediocre at best if you don't get a garage, there are multiple places around the property that have lights out, there are more and more college residents, the parking lot is peoples personal racetrack (even though there are tons of speed bumps), and the grass areas are more littered with dog crap from lazy owners (they provide doggie bags...EVERYWHERE!).
Several of these issues were reported to the office and NEVER addressed or fixed. So if you plan on using the grass areas, watch where you walk.
