Resident 2013

I have gotten into more than one fight with my significant other over the cost of the apartment, but for the area, there isn't much we can do about it. Either we spend the money on a really nice place or save a few hundred bucks and risk living in misery. I can only hear my neighbor who plays the piano when I walk by his door. As soon as I shut my door, all neighbor noise is gone. The kitchen is really nice for an apartment. I like the layout and the cupboards and counter tops don't look cheap. I do wish the cupboards were bigger for appliances, but there is a nice pantry, and a built-in microwave. Full size washer and dryer make our lives easier, but the bathroom is too big. It would have been nicer to have used the room in the kitchen instead. Gas fireplace is awesome, and we have plenty of closet space. Maintenance is almost like magic. We just place an online order and by the time we get home from work, the issue is fixed. You're allowed to paint as long as you paint the walls white when you leave. The only strange (kind of) requirement is that you steam clean the carpets every six months which I just did yesterday. The carpet was new when we moved in, and it must have some a stain blocker in it because if we spill something and place a paper towel on it, the paper towel will soak it right up with hardly any effort. Electric bill is pretty low for us, so there must be some decent insulation. I wish we had more windows, but it is an apartment so I shouldn't really complain about that. The gym is small, but not busy and is open 24/7. There is also a separate gym for all Piney Orchard residents, not just the apartments. You have to pay $10 for a swipe badge with your picture. That gym has an indoor lap pool and a hot tub. There is a beautiful lake with ducks that I like to walk around even when it's dark. It's right next to the tennis courts which are really well lit. There's a nice shopping center with a walking path that my significant other often walk to together. There's three pools, and kiddie pool. There's no assigned parking, but there ample parking and I have always had my choice of at least five spaces. It's really a nice place, and we will likely renew our lease. I do hate the cost of the apartment, but I looked around really well before moving and I couldn't find anything worth saving a few hundred dollars over.
