Resident 2007 - 2010

1/25/2010

I have been living here for two years. There have been many problems along the way and I have hated living here the whole time, but the location was very convenient for me. I no longer care about that, this place has become unbarable. Recently there has been so much crime it is UNSAFE to live here. Four apartments right next to mine were ransacked and robbed in the middle of the afternoon. Crime is bad in this whole complex. I am moving out next month. Here is my review of everything else in the complex... Parking: They only allow one parking space per apartment. People park their broken down cars in their parking space and park their running vehicles in 72hour parking spots limiting the amount of open spots. Dirt&Dust: The apartments are wedged in between two freeways and train tracks. These apartments are VERY dirty and dusty. It scares me to think how much dust has collected in my lungs from living here. I clean and dust my apartment once a week and there is a very thick layer of dust/dirt every time. They also need to repave the parking lot. The gravel has come loose causing the parking lot to be VERY dirty. And the landscape workers come by and blow the dust up from the parking lot all over your vehicle and into your apartment. Washing Machines: Three out of six washers have been broken for months. Noise: Well you have your choice of living just yards from 880 and 238 or just yards from a train that blows its horn all hours of the night. I made the mistake of choosing the apartment right next to the train tracks. During the summer with my bedroom windows open the train horn startles me awake at least four times a night, it's so painful. Climate: I find it strange that we live in California yet there are four heaters in this tiny apartment. But no air conditioner! During the summer the apartment gets extremely hot. It is miserable. With only two windows there is no air circulation. Maintenance: I haven't had any problems with maintenance. Every time something is broken, I've made a request and it was fixed. Yet, the won't fix the washers. Or when they do a quick fix and the washer breaks again soon after. Balcony: The balcony s have wood slats with gaps in between on the floor. You can not barbeque because of this and also everything falls onto the patio of the apartment below. I am so glad I am the one up top and not having someone else crap fall all over my patio. The roof stops very short. Most of the balcony is completely open, so you can not go out side if it's raining. And if you have your balcony door open even a crack when it's raining it will rain inside your apartment. This also causes the glass on the balcony door and bedroom window to be very dirty. Also there is no roof over the front door so you will track is lots of water and mud into your apartment. Bugs: During the winter there are ants in the kitchen and bathroom. The ants have attacked and ruined my food many times. During the summer there are wasps that fly around my balcony and have even come into the apartment. Last summer a bush was cut down next to my apartment causing all the spiders living in the bush to wonder into my apartment.
