It's a great place to live overall, the only concerns I had was is the one bedroom apartments are too small. It's like 500 spuare feet and not including the balcony. It's like living in a dorn room on campus. It's safe to live and parking is very convient especially when you have guess coming over. A friend of mine lived in the 2 bedroom with a loft, and that was very spacious. The shuttle service is usually not on time, so don't rely too heavily on it. You can catch the metro bus as alternative. A very safe community to live in, Alexandria Police patrol quite often thoughout the day. <br>Be careful if you live on the top floor I had <br>some unexpected guess.
