Resident 2010 - 2011

8/15/2011

This is with out a doubt the worst place I have lived. When my girlfriend and I first moved in we thought this was going to be a great place to live. Nice layout and close to the highway. After living here for about a month we found out this is not the case. Parking: Parking is not really an issue for us because we both shell out the money for a carport. Although the carports are small and the lady next to me has trouble staying in the lines tt was very nice during the winter. The only complaint is the huge work truck that is parked behind my carport making it difficult to get out. I hasn't moved in literally 6 months. If I didn't have a carport parking might be an issue. The lot seems very full all the time and it is difficult for my visitors to find a spot. Noise: This is by far the worst issue in this place. Most reviews on here complain about the noise and they are correct. I live on the corner so I can here everyone stomping up and down the stairs at all hours of the night. When I am in my bedroom I can hear evereything the girl next to me is doing. Whether its watching TV, coughing, having sex, or what sounds like her getting beat up by her boyfriend and yelling. The people below me are an issue too. I never thought I would have to complain about the noise from below. Grounds: The grounds are ok. No major comlaints here. Just that the trash dumpsters need to be emptied more. (See Picture) There is always a big pile of trash and a racoon that weighs about 40 pounds in the dumpster waiting to greet you. Sometimes there is garbage that sits on the ground a few days until I get sick of looking at it and pick it up. It was mentioned before that people let their dogs urinate right by the building. You will know where because of the enormous dead spots of grass. Someone on the bottom floor moved out a month ago and there has been a brand new washer and dryer sitting at the bottom of the stairs since then. Safety: Overall I feel physically safe here. I did get my motorcycle stolen. It was in front of my carport and couldn't be seen from the road at all. Makes you wonder about your neighbors. Wouldn't it be easier and more practical to steal the washer and dryer and the bottom of the stairs. They do have a storm shelter which we did have to use. It started to smell like a zoo from everyone bringin their animals but I don't blame them. Construction: At first glance the construction looks alright. After living here a while that is not the case. The underside of the cabinets is not enclosed to our cat gets under there and crawls around eating god knows what. There is paint on the bar and backsplash that didn't get cleaned off when the work was done. The other day the clothes rack in the closet ripped out of the wall and hit my girlfriend in the head and everything on it fell on her. Upon further inspection they installed the rack straight into the dry wall and not the stud. The other reviews mentioned poor insulation and nailed it right on the head. I could heat a house for less than this apartment some months. Maintenance: Never really had any issues with Maintenance staff. I am currently sitting here waiting for them to come fix my clothes rack so maybe I can hang my clothes up and not have to wear wrinkled shirts to work. I called them on Wednesday and here it is Monday and I am still waiting. Staff: The staff here is the biggest group of airheads I have ever met. Everytime I go to the office for something there is a different group of people working here. The lady we signed the lease with left shortly after we arrived. She was the only one that seemed to have any common sense. When I ask them how much my rent is with the water bill they tell me, I write a check, and then two days later get a note saying I owe them more money. They just don't know how to deal with the problems that they know are going on. Overall: I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Especially for the price that you pay and the BS you have to put up with.
