        Because rent has risen over $1,000 per month in 3 years, I don't think this complex is a good value anymore. There are other apartments with similar rents with much nicer finishings. We are looking for better alternatives.

            The quality of tenants has steadily declined in the two years we've lived here. People smoke and leave butts all over even though this is a no smoking complex. We've had our garage broken into and over $3K worth of our belongings stolen.ā€¦Ā See More >

              The community is in a convenient location; however, there is a severe lack of safety. There has been so many break-ins to cars, storage units, and apartments. The complex does not regulate the number of people living in the apartment. Some units haveā€¦Ā See More >

                      The apartments are well maintained, and the grounds are kept clean. Location here is excellent!! You can walk to the arena, train station, shopping, dining, coffee shops, etc. The complex is very pet friendly too.
