Have lives here for 11 months. Very quiet place to reside. Have very little negative responses for the complex. All the staff is more than willing to help with any questions or problems you may encounter. Enjoy the work-out room and the pool, seasonal of course. Apartment is spacious and well maintained. Neighbors are very nice and respectful of each others privacy and quiet time. Has been a positive experience living here. Would recommend, to all who seek a quality living place, the Residence at Merrillville Lakes as your new and improved home.
