Overall, it hasn't been too bad here...I can understand most of the comments made by others...yes, it can be pretty noisy. I've heard it all, from the neighbors having sex and their headboard hitting the wall, to the people upstairs running laps, maintanance mowing the lawn at 8am, and the ongoing balcony repairs that also conveniently start as early as 7:30am.
The apartments are in pretty decent condition, and in my case, maintanance has been quick to respond to problems i've had.
For the last 2 years, we haven't been able to use our balconies. The balconies are finally getting close to being finished, but who knows if we'll get to enjoy them this summer'

I haven't dealt much with management, but from what i can tell, they're pretty nice.

My biggest problem here is parking. There really isn't enough parking for everyone (I come home from work at 9pm and most of the time there are no spots left), and you have to pay $20/month for covered parking. I chose to pay for covered parking because it was a guaranteed parking spot. or so i thought. Many times I have come home to someone parking in my spot, or a truck blocking my spot. When the parking lot was being resealed, an entire strip of covered parking was blocked off for over a week.

An inconvenient part of these apts is how the buildings are set up...you have to go thru an outside door into a hallway to your apt, much like a hotel, makes bringing home groceries, or pretty much anything, a huge pain. Yes, it helps with security, but it's still a pain.

The apt is small, almost no counter space in the kitchen, very minimal storage space, can be very noisy, since you have neighbors on all sides of you, but hey, it's an apt, low priced compared to others in the area, and decently maintained. Not too bad.
