I moved out of the Ridgeleighs over two months ago after living there over two years. At first, things were good, but then the apartments went through several different management companies in a very short amount of time and us renters got the short end of the stick. THe current company has STILL not returned my security deposit after 60 DAYS!! even though my lease (signed by them) clearly states it would be returned within 45 days. DONT MOVE IN HERE!! Lots of break-ins to cars and no extra lights put in to the parking lots. Poor response from leasing office. Parking is hard to find because no restrictions keep near by residents from parking in the Ridgeleigh lots. The leasing office wont return messages left for them. Overall, I have been very let down by my experience here... AND IM STILL WAITING FOR MY DEPOSIT!!!
