When I first moved in here i thought i was in heaven compared to were I moved from. We had police officers monitoring the property constantly after five p.m. every night until the next morning. The cops disappeared after about a month. They advertise a pool and fitness room neither of which is near completion even though that is why I moved here. Parking is horrible. I will say that maintenance is wonderful they are friendly and they double check to make sure that the tenant is satisfied with the work. But I will say some of these companies they have to come in to do work do a horrible job. Not to mention they spend so much time trying to make the outside pretty, but they tell us that they are short on maintenance men.

You are crazy. Parking is wonderful, and if your only real complaint is them not having a pool or a fitness room then join Ballys. Townes of Jones Run has NEVER advertised a pool or fitness room so get your facts straight!!!!!!!!!

No I didn't move here only for the pool or fitness room I moved in because of the police patrolling the area. And I do not believe you were with the leasing agent the day I met with them to know what was said during the course of my lease signing. The area you park in might be wonderful but to each his own that is not my case. Further more if I wanted to spend more money to join a gym I am well aware of my options. Have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The purpose of the police in the complex was to patrol to make sure nothing was happening so get it right. Its not about complaining either, its about the place doing what they say. You obviously just moved in and they did not inform you that the police presence was to make us feel safe considering we live in between several high crime apartment complexes.

You can come and move in with me and yes I just moved here and I'm a Newport News Police officer and no we don't have to be here 24/7 other people have real emergencies and we don't have to come a babysit because we are not contracted security if that is what you want then you might want to suggest that with the rental office to hire a contracted security officer.

I would say that they are pretty nice townhouses for the price. For the price it's hard to as much storage space as these apartments have. Yes, certain lots have HORRIBLE parking, but certain others have decent parking. The fitness center is now completed. I feel safer in this neighborhood than I would in a lot of other neighborhoods nearby.
