By comparison, the cost of living at this apartment is higher than others we have seen.

Laundry $1.75 wash $1.00 dry per load
Appliances are old and function poorly. Our gas oven heats about 25 degrees lower than the set temperature, and our fridge seals poorly.
Single pane windows get very wet on the inside from condensation and the wooden frames are rotting. When it is raining they are extremely hard to open, but the apartment becomes stale and musty quickly when they are closed.
Also, although advertised as having a pool, the property does not have a working pool. We were shown the pool when we previewed the property, but were informed immediately after signing our lease that the pool had been closed. We learned from other residents that it hasn't really been open at all over the past two years.
