I decided i'd finally write a review after our rent has continued to increase by $230 /month over 4 years, during the countries hardest economic times. Archstone claim to work FOR their communities when really they will sell you out as soon as look at you. I wouldn't mind the rise in price if i could see any benefits coming from the increase, but i haven't. Parking is a nightmare, noise is constant, people feel the need to hang out in carpark with music blasting at all hours of night. I see free starbucks on saturdays once in a while, when really i'd rather them NOT pay for coffee for the 10 ppl per apt families and keep my rent at a reasonable rate.
