I've lived at Water's Edge Apartments for just over a year. Overall, I've had a great experience with the neighbors, leasing staff and maintenance staff. If you are looking to have a nice apartment while saving some money compared to other places in the area, then this is a great place to live! That being said, I'll still explain my criticisms of living here that you'll notice over time:
When we first moved in, you could tell that the paint job was simply painted over the previous one (due to
...it's excessive amount on the molding). In addition, the towel rack in the bathroom has never been firmly attached to the wall - it has fallen off several times and the screws do not stay in the wall securely. If you have one of the rooms that are along the walkway, people do occasionally walk by your window, but I haven't had anybody stare into my room. Also, if you have thin curtains up with the blinds open, you can see out well without being able to see in well (which is a plus for privacy). If you don't like the sound of trains, then you won't enjoy the trains that go by (often at 2am) that sometimes honk their horn. However, you get used to them after a while. You can occasionally hear your neighbors walking next door, but it isn't anything too noisy. Sometimes your floor does squeak and the vibration caused by that can shake items on shelves slightly, but none of my possessions have ever been damaged by it.
Overall though, I was pleased with the amount of square footage that was given in comparison to the rent per month. Also, there is usually available parking for your vehicle. It's nice being able to have easy access to I-96 and Kensington just north of Water's Edge. I've read other reviews saying that say the staff isn't nice, but my experience with them has been just the opposite - both the leasing and maintenance staff have always been helpful and friendly. As long as you treat them with respect, they'll do the same for you! I've enjoyed my time here at Water's Edge Apartments and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is on a budget!
