Affordable Townhouse in "Kalamazoo Promise" Location
May 4, 2020 - Reseña de Apartments.com
I cannot express how AFFORDABLE this place is. It is a co-op, which makes ALL the difference in the price. They basically ask for just enough to cover their own expenses, including landscaping, maintenance, ploughing, and periodic improvements, but that is the end of it. The staff is as friendly and helpful as one might expect in a place where the waitlist is super long and no one gets extra pay for keeping current tenants happy. But at this price, that's really not something you want to complain ...
about. I've lived in other townhouses before and since and this place was a true diamond in the rough. HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to spend less on rent and more on living... unless I decide to move back, then I would tell you to stay away to try getting myself higher on their list.
That being said, if I were to mention the downsides that eventually drew me away: no dishwasher, poorly regulated appliances (oven/fridge), no community amenities, and NO freedom to leave anything unlocked even if you're in the back yard or upstairs. (Remarkably observant kids from the neighboring apartment complex, some as young as 5, are free to roam the entire multiplex alone and will casually enter any unlocked house or vehicle to take things they've seen through the windows or know belong to the kids that live there. Cops can't exactly regulate bad parenting, though they do make reports when expensive toys go missing or are found broken and buried in strange hiding spots so far away from their own home. If it were just one family, I wouldn't mention it, but there seems to be a cultural trend there.) Even with those downsides, it's still an awesome deal considering how much you SAVE.
