Resident 2015 - 2017

6/16/2017

I am horrified with this place.The chaos that goes on here on a daily basis is unbelievable and sad for the children who witness it. You cannot enjoy the amenities you pay for because 75% of neighbors are trash here and overtake everything. The office staff tells you to call the police to help them get the garbage out and when you do nothing is done. They literally say "Well, we have to weigh our options because they pay their rent on time". In every response to a negative review there is a "we're working on a crime free location". NOTHING is ever done. GET SOME SECURITY TO PATROL THIS ------ COMPLEX. With free utilities comes people cramming into one bedroom apartments and the only response from the office staff is: 'Well, we give them a 2 day inspection notice and they clear out before the inspection there is nothing we can do." They do not handle situations. They take FOREVER to kick people out. Police are here Check the police reports before you move in. They also do not make new residents provide proof of income so trailer trash moves in here and slang drugs to pay rent. They allow medical marijuana card holders to live here regardless of what their lease says. They post signs that they are a smoke free community but they are not. The gym is old and out of date and someone stole the weights and they have yet to replace them. The laundry room is terrible. People work out in construction etc and their oils from their clothes STAY in the washers and RUIN other peoples clothes. There are stray cats that are never taken care of. There is broken lights out all the time because with ------ tenants comes unsupervised bratty children that vandalize. All the staff does is give 10 day notices and NEVER kick anyone out. The staff is doing what their owners want and that is to fill the apartments and make rent. They say they patrol on their own time, but they do not. I have YET to see any manager EVER show up on their own time. Why would they? There is a drunk guy here that is always belligerent and brings coolers down to the pool and drinks in front of kids. Disregarding his lease and the posted signs forbidding it, but again even with proof NOTHING is done; a 10 day notice is given Until the drunk forgets and does it again 2 nights later. There is a little black kid that runs around here and slangs drugs to all the young kids.They are all in cahoots with eachother so don't bother reporting anything because they never do anything. Residents who have been here a long time think they can get away with walking around smoking joins. They bring their dogs into the pool. Anyone who is good leaves. There are always new managers running this place. The included utilities is not worth the price. You pay 1265+ for a crappy outdated apartment. You will pay alot for laundry every week and in the winter they shut your air off and you're only allowed to use the heater. The water gets shut off for one person's apartment and they always say WERE WORKING ON A NEW SYSTEM SO THIS DOESNT HAPPEN. Well its been well over a year that multiple managers have said that. There is never follow through with anything here. It just isn't worth your time if you're a nice family or a nice individual looking for a safe community. Do your research. Tour the place on a week night around 7:30 because thats when the trash comes out to play. Anyone who is a good tenant leaves as soon as they can.
