Brookville is lovely area with very nice little townhomes with courtyards perfect for children and pets. Unfortunately, the management would rather your kids cross two lanes of traffic to go across the street to the concret and blacktop playground about 100 yards from parents eyes, instead of right out front of your apartment.
Each unit comes with a dishwasher guarranteed to break about 6 times a year. a washer/dryer in the kitchen that is sensitive to touch, so that will break about twice a year, as well.
If you get DirecTV, better not put it on your roof or the side of your apartment. Your reception takes a back seat to managements concern for landscaping and fence-mounted dishes. They will cut the line and charge you $450 to move it.
They are very serious about their miniscule parking lots, too. Rather than label the spaces, they will tow your friend if they stay over a night without a note from the front office. Tow trucks patrol periodically with flashing lights at 1am for your children to wake up to.
So, run away. DO NOT GIVE YOUR MONEY TO THEM. There are better places. I'm moving to one of them myself.

I know how you feel. We lived there back in 2002, for 1 year of PURE HELL!!!! They are sooo funny considering a closet as a 3rd bedroom. It wasn't even big enough for an office, and the Master bedroom wasn't big enough for our King size bed. Parking was a nightmare then. They need to rethink the entire complex because it could be something really nice. We were very disappointed especially with the Management office and their broken promises.

I think most of these comments are misplaced. Brookville does have its share of problems (*cough* front office staff *cough*), but maintaining a pretty appearance is a nice touch and parking isnt horrible.
The problem with parking wasnt the parking itself, but the staff, They changed to all new stickers and sent out the announcement 1 week before they did it. I was away on travel and my car was towed because it had an old sticker ($180 or so). Giving residents a 1 week notice for items and making them pick up the stickers is poor planning an service.
If they remove Terry from the maintenance staff I am leaving, he is honest, hardworking and kind. The new head of maintenance gave a good first impression, but the jury is still out on him for the long term.
