I just moved out a few weeks ago. I lived there for 3 years while going to GMU. Over the last 3 years I've witnessed the following:

FOUR domestic disputes from different places - one of which involved us rescuing the woman and having cops come to our apt. Her official statement said she "fell down" B.S.! My roomate went to court as a witness and the guy was charged with all kinds of drug charges and got off for domestic dispute.

A crack house RIGHT ACROSS from us... cars would pull up all day and the tennants would sell drugs in broad daylight. Needless to say they were evicted after numerous complaints.

------ maintence. We did get a new dishwasher, and our 18 yr-old AC finally died. We didn't have AC for 10 days during the hottest week of the summer. A thermometer in our apt said it was 109 degrees. NO REFUND / Money off from lakeside.

Jeep broken into... cops patrol at night, and helicopters are ALWAYS flying overhead with spotlights. I remember a few nights where the spotlight was directly on my bedroom window. Scary stuff.

--------/Latinos rummaging around through dumpster - daily occurance.

Here's how the rates were:
2004 - 1065
2005 - 1200
2006 - 1450
ABSOULUTELY REDICULOUS how high they jack up the prices. They DID change management.. twice... BFD! In the end, my roomate and I were the suckers for staying but still... the price increase is absurd.

After jacking up the prices a lot of the lower-class tennants moved out and everything seems to be getting better. I doubt I'm the only one with horror stories from reading all these comments.
