One of the great things about Hunter's Ridge is the location. It is right near several main streets that can take you anywhere throughout the suburbs. You are within 10 minutes from pretty much any grocery store, restaurant, doctors/hospitals, and anything else you may need. You are also a two minute drive from I-90, which will get you to Chicago, and then anywhere between Boston and Seattle!
The office staff are always very pleasant to speak with and work with, I do have concerns, but I will
...get to them further down. I was having some issues keeping up with rent at one point, and after speaking with them about the situation, they were really willing to work with me in getting caught up.
The apartments themselves aren't bad overall. I personally feel that I pay too much for what I am getting, and have gotten that impression from several other residents as well. The kitchen is a little small and outdated. I am glad it does have a dishwasher, though! I was fortunate enough to get one of the apartments that has a washer and dryer in unit, not all do however, so be sure to ask before getting the room. Another thing to consider is that the complex is right across a busy street from a fairly busy train track. I will say I'm somewhat close to the street and hardly hear either the trains or the traffic, but I can't speak for the residents that live along the street.
My biggest issue with Hunter's Ridge is the lack of communication from the office staff. I will attempt to give the Reader's Digest version...A few months back, on a Saturday, the water main outside of my building burst, however it was almost 24-hours without water before anyone from the office called us to explain what was going on. At that point it was said, "if you can afford it, stay at a hotel and we will take the cost off your rent"..Nice sentiment but there are several people that couldn't afford it and would be without running water. I fortunately had a brother nearby to stay with for a few nights. After that first call, I didn't hear from them again until I called them on Tuesday to see about the water being back on, at which point they told me they had rented out a bunch of rooms at a local hotel. Again, had I not called THEM, I would have been completely unaware of this. The water wasn't back on until Thursday, and I never once spoke with them without having to call them and leaving several voicemails.
Overall, it's not a bad place to live, but I can guarantee there are better
