The worst move you will ever make!

Where do I start' The $100 deposit was because they were running a special that month so I'm not sure what the actual amount is. Since we moved, the rent for our 1 bedroom apt. has increased from $617 to $701. Safety is an issue. Complex residents petitioned for security (guard or gate) but nothing was done. Wheels have been stolen off of numerous vehicles. An argument where guns were drawn occured right outside of our front door. People have gotten mugged while walking to the gas station next door. If you live on the first floor, you are gauranteed HUGE cockroaches, spiders, crickets and several other species of bugs in your apartment. We have already been through several cans of Raid. The gym is a joke! What equipment they do have is usually broken or missing (free weights). Trash dumpster is always over filled and actually caught on fire once! A clogged toilet led to a huge hole in the wall (cut by a contracted maintenance crew). Then, after they cut our pipes open and didn't repair them, our upstairs neighbors "toilet waste" was thrown all over our bathroom. We had to pay to replace everything and we had to clean up the mess!! And last but not least...the front office staff. We thought the old management sucked until Drucker & Falk took over. The new staff is rude, incompetent, and for God's sake...get a receipt for your rent! A rent check that we paid over 2 weeks early was lost by Michelle. Then, we were told by the manager Lucy, that we would be responsible the $50 late fee and $85 eviction fee if they did not receive a cashiers check that day. A threat to call her manager quickly resolved the issue. However, we were still responsible the the $30 stop-payment fee all because we paid our rent 2 weeks early. We would definitely not recommend this apartment complex to anyone!
