Valley Ranch Ghetto

From: -Anonymous-
Date posted: 6/1/2004
Years at this apartment: 1998 - 2000
 
Well, this place was my first home in Texas. Let me just say that the typical resident didn't really have so much of a job as they had a trade. As in, trade cash for services or goods. A wife-beater tank top and very, very baggy jeans is the uniform of the day for the average tennant.

Very low frills complex...pool was usually clean, but not very inviting. The laundry facilities were usually clean and available. I never had a maintenance problem so I never dealt with the managers...so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say they were fine.

My issue was with their lack of a screening process for tennants. Anyone with a heartbeat could live there. And I mean anyone. It could be scary to walk around the complex at night with all the thugs sitting on their cars and smoking their drug of choice with a 40 of beer. It was the sort of thing you'd expect at a complex south of Hwy 183...not in Valley Ranch. My car was keyed on three separate occassions and I saw several fist fights over the course of two years.

If you're a single white female, stay away from this ghetto.

Not to be racist, but if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck...
