I'm renting a room here and the owners are super sweet, they are the best people to live with.
Now, for the apartment:
1. It is NEVER quiet here. Kids kids and more kids - everywhere both screaming, running and biking! Hard and heavy stomping from upstairs, not to mention you can hear EVERYTHING from any of the shared walls and ceiling.
2. I gave up on washing my car. There's no way to keep it clean from parking in their available spaces (tree sap & dust).
3. The place is filthy in general. Trash everywhere. People don't care to pick up after themselves. Very sad since the complex itself is nice otherwise.
4. You won't notice the smell from the landfill as long as all the windows are shut. Once you are outside though, you cannot hide from it especially when it's hot.
5. If your routine shopping places include Safeway, Trader Joes, Target and Bank of America, you are far (in my book) from all.
Some pros: washer/dryer in unit, tennis court & pool, nice treadmill, very close to 880 and Mccarthy ranch.
