"What have we got ourselves into'" Was my boyfriend and I's first thought our first day here. We chose to move to Creston Point becuase it was in our price range and close to work and they were fairly decent apartments for the price. Well great, but when I am afraid to walk outside alone [or with my boyfriend] in the day time - something is wrong. I can't even take out the trash or go to the mailbox without getting hit on or some rude comment spit at me. Our appliances are not reliable at.all. They have broken more than once costing us a pretty penny to replace to food and other goods that were destroyed [We were paid for the damages after much pushing] Kids are literally e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e. Parking is just a mess. I have to drive around the WHOLE complex to find a place. And I refuse to park in the guest parking becuase I have seen kids kicking rocks down from above onto cars. With these hot temperatures, having the windows open is a hassle because people feel the need to advertise what kind of music they are playing, or sit with their car stereos louder than healthy. Recently learning about the murder, rape and other crimes here, I regret ever moving into this place. It seems like my apartment is void of natural light becuase you don't want to open your blind becuase you are packed in like Sardines. When blinds are open, there are ALWAYS people out or being nosy. The pet deposit was just out of this world. I think I can officialy say this is the biggest mistake of my young adult life. I wish I would have been a smarter and read reviews prior to moving in here, but we were in a hurry. We have only been here 3 months [signed a year lease sadly] and I am counting down the days till we can leave. I really want to just break the lease and get the hell out of here now. I am trapped in my own home out of fear.

Reading this review, I suspect it will be only a short time before a 5 will be added showing how wonderful this hell hole is (Creston Point Management does something at least).

I CURRENTLY LIVE AT CRESTON POINT!!! LET ME FIRST TELL YOU I TYPE VERY SLOW SO I AM NOT ABLE TO SAY ALL THAT I WOULD LIKE, BUT IT WILL STILL BE QUITE A BIT!!! WHAT IS SAID IN THE REVIEW ABOVE SAVES ME SOOO MUCH TIME YOU WOULD NOT EVEN BELIEVE!!! I AM NOT SURE IF THERE WAS ONE DETAIL LEFT UNSAID THAT I WOULD LIKE TO ADD WELL MAYBE A FEW!!! THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!! THIS IS NOT FROM A PERSON THAT IS MAD AT SOMEONE, OR AT THE MANAGEMENT, THIS IS THE TRUTH FROM SOMEONE WHO MADE THE EXACT SAME MISTAKE AS THE PERSON ABOVE!!! I REALLY WISH I WOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHAKE THE PERSON'S HAND THAT WROTE THAT, I WOULD TELL YOU MY APARTEMENT # SO YOU COULD COME BY AND PICK UP THAT HAND SHAKE, BUT I OPEN THE DOOR FOR NOONE!!! THE FEW THINGS I HAVE TO ADD ARE... BESIDES COMING HOME WITH MY GIRLFRIEND AND MY 2 KIDS AND HAVING THE ELEVATOR DOORS OPEN FOR ME TO FIND THE INSIDE FLOOR COMPLETELY SOAKED IN URINE, OR THE TIME I WAS COMING HOME ALONE AFTER A DAY AT WORK SO I DECIDED TO TAKE THE STEPS (SINCE IT IS USUALLY FASTER THAN WAITING FOR THE KIDS TO QUIT TAGGING UP THE ELEVATOR) WHEN HALF WAY UP THE STEPS "WHAT DO I FIND? OH BOY!" A HUGE TURD ON THE CARPET!!! WTF!!!!!! WHO DOES THAT!!! WELL BESIDES ALL THE BAD THINGS ATLEAST I HAVE TO GIVE ALOT OF CREDIT TO THE MAINTENENCE MEN!!! *CLAP* THEY TRY THEIR HARDEST TO KEEP ALL THE LITTLE TOP RAMEN PACKETS, CIGGERETTE BUTTS, CHICKEN BONES (NO JOKE), BEER CANS, FOOD WRAPPERS, LOTS OF EMPTY WALLETS AND PURSES (FOR SOME REASON ???), AND COMPELTY FULL BAGS OF GARBAGE (TAKEN "ALMOST" ALL THE WAY TO THE DUMPSTER OR RIGHT OUSIDE THE BUILDING) CLEANED UP!!! SO BRAVO MAINTENENCE MEN!!! YOU GUYS TRY KEEPING THE PLACE LOOKING AS GOOD AS POSSIBLE!!! WHICH IN TURN TRICKS PEOPLE THAT ARE YOUNG AND DUMB INTO MOVING INTO THE GHETTO!!! *AND FOR THOSE OF YOU SAYING* "WHY ARE YOU TYPING IN CAPS? THAT MEANS YOU ARE YELLING! WAAAH!" IT IS BECAUSE "I AM YELLING!!!" I CAN HARDLY HEAR MYSELF TYPING OVER THE UNSUPERVISED 4 YR OLD KIDS RUNNING UP AND DOWN MY HALLWAY!!! P.S. ATLEAST THEY HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VIEW!!! MY 1 WINDOW IS 8 FEET FROM NEIGHBORS 1 WALL, AND MY 1 SLIDING GLASS DOOR IS 8 FEET FROM MY NEIGHBORS 1 SLIDING GLASS DOOR...
