I have lived at The Settlement for many years. Of all the new apartments being built in the Kyle area, I have elected to stay here as this complex affords me all the amenities and surroundings I need. The grounds and landscaping are quite nice and well laid out. The residents are offered two pools, a nice gym in which to work out, garages, carports, etc. If I had a maintenance issue or needed an item such as new batteries for the smoke alarms, leaky faucets or toilets, oven or refrigerator repairs, it has always been addressed as quickly as possible. Sometimes quicker than other times according to the backlog of requests. The management staff is quite friendly and always has responded to any issue I might have. Veronica the current Manager, is quite qualified, friendly and efficient. As are the other members of her staff. This is a large apartment complex and with the many day to day issues (maintaining new and current leases, the showing of apartments, answering phone calls and residents questions, etc.) I feel they do an excellent job for the many residents that live here. Rents are competitive with other apartments around this area. Yes, they do go up every year but they are fair. Check around for yourself and see the difference in quality. This is a very nice place to live.
