The air conditioning can't quite keep up with the Alabama summer, but at least I have a fan in the bedroom and that helps a little. I live upstairs and the floors creak some, which doesn't bother me at all but it drives my downstairs neighbor crazy. Parking for residents is assigned, but if you have visitors they will have trouble parking. Pest Control is once a month and I have never had any trouble with bugs. I have heard about some criminal activity, but I have never witnessed it and I feel perfectly safe living here by myself. The buildings are a bit older, but I have had good experiences with maintenance coming to fix things quickly. I just signed another year lease because moving is a hassle, this place is relatively inexpensive, and better than sufficient for a grad student.
