Look elsewhere.

Minuses: <br>1. parking lot near my unit is flooded when it rains and a mosquito-ridden mud hole afterwards. The storm drains arent kept clear, even though the mgmt knows it causes flooding problems. <br>2. the wiring isnt grounded and the old-style fuse boxes dont handle a toaster and a microwave running together.<br>3. lousy water pressure. when one units water is in use, others in the building have severely reduced water pressure<br>4. ceiling in one room is cracked and plaster is crumbling. Mgmt. keeps putting off repairing it.<br>5. roof leaking and water seeping in the walls. supposedly repaired several times, but never fixed<br>6. when the upstairs apartment uses the shower, the downstairs apt gets a shower from the ceiling. mgmt has fixed this several times.<br>7. the window frames are single-pained and not well sealed. This makes cooling and heating difficult and expensive.<br>8. mandated gas provider has dreadful cust no-service<br>9. The screens are in bad repair and are hanging off the frame. Impossible to leave open windows without letting in bugs. The outside of the windows badly need to be cleaned.<br>10. security gate for complex is useless. Gate is left open and unmonitored during office hours. Often broken (sometimes shut!) and cars piggy-back in behind other cars. <br>11. no upkeep of communal areas inside buildings<br><br>Pluses: <br>1. wonderful layout of well-kept grounds with big 50-year old shady oaks<br>2. generous floor plan with big closets.<br>3. sound proof from room to room (but sound and cooking smells travel floor to floor)<br>4. tile bathroom, big tub<br>5. each apt has own water heater<br>6. only four units per bldg with mail delivered inside the bldg<br>7. only 20-minute walk to MARTA station, close to Agnes Scott, Emory U.<br>8. three blocks from vibrant downtown Decatur<br>9. area police are very responsive to trouble <br>
