I lived at this apartment for 3 years. It was three of the scariest years of my life. During that time there I had to call the police no less than 5 times. Crime was rampant (theft, drug use, etc.) and the management was beyond bad. The facility itself was yucky, though I think they were trying to revamp things around the time we moved out. The management was very slow to address concerns; one evening there was a copperhead ON OUR DOORSTEP. We called and asked for them to bring a shovel to kill it - or to let my husband kill it. They wouldn't even do that; the maintenance guy said he was afraid of snakes and didn't want to even get close to bring a shovel so my husband could kill it. Absolutely pathetic. Another time, we sighted (and photographed for proof) that there was a coral snake (NOT a king snake - it was red on yellow) in the grass nearby where all the apartment kids played soccer. Again, no response from management. After the copperhead incident, we went and bought a shovel. My husband did get rid of that one. Drunken fights were a common occurence, as well as loud, rowdy late-night parties that the mgt did nothing about. Parking was also a problem in our corner. There were never enough spots! Getting in and out of the complex is dangerous (as another reviewer posted). My husband was in a terrible accident (car totalled injuries) trying to get out one morning. I remember being so scared to try to get into the 1960 traffic - especially if, God-forbid, I needed to turn left. Very dangerous. We left the place in better (!) shape than when we moved in - and the management still took all our deposit. Crooked. The laundry room facilities were really, really gross. The happiest day of my life was the day we moved away from this "ghetto" and into our first home. If you need an apartment - look elsewhere! I'd give this complex zero stars if I could. The only reason we lived there so long was that we couldn't afford moving costs / deposit on a new place. In hindsight, recognizing how incredibly dangerous it was, we should have lived in our cars if we had to rather than stay there. Yes, it really was that bad!
(P.s. I lived there from 1999-2002....the computer has a glitch and keeps saying I lived there until 2008; that is inaccurate.)
