Anderson Apartments

roach problem there and management will pretend like you're the first to report it. Their spray doesn't help. The only thing this place really has going for it are balconies and the location. My advice: If you're going to move in, take lots of pictures and report Everything (anything missing, anything uncleaned, anything broken), no matter how petty it seems.

above a whisper, steps, music). The appliances are cheap and rickety. People leave trash in the hallways and parking lot. The common areas hardly ever get swept. It feels dumpy. The new owner has made some cosmetic changes, but you’re better off somewhere else.

rent, but well worth it for what you get. We have been here for about 3 months now, and so far really enjoying it. The buildings are older, but have nice wooden floors and new appliances, and feel like they have a little more character than some other newer apartments. The complex is small and quiet, and feels very safe. I walk my dogs alone at night and feel fine, although i probably wouldn't go too far down Anderson as there aren't any street lights. The residents are all grad students, young professionals, couples etc. It is an amazing location honestly, we are close to everything. 5 mins to downtown, coffee shops, grocery stores, and walking distance to a park, a trail,duke gardens and the art museum. Swanky! We lived in North Durham for 2 years prior to this, and in just 3 months have been to way more places around town, because they are so close. The kitchen in our 2 bedroom is a little small, but we don't cook much. This might be an issue for a couple that likes to cook together. For cooking alone, it's fine. The only downside really so far is noise from upstairs. Like in most apartments, you can hear very clearly when people are moving around if they are heavy footed. However, I met my upstairs neighbor and mentioned that sometimes he would wake me up walking around in the mornings (I work nights and sleep til pretty late) and he was super cool about it and I haven't heard him in the bedroom since. You can hear moving around etc in the living areas but honestly after a while you don't even notice it. The only other slightly inconvenient thing is they don't have an auto draft or online option for rent. You have to mail it, or drop by their office, which is offsite. So yeah, pretty darn happy with our choice.
