  • There are better, but there are definitely worse

    February 28, 2018
    This is by far the best apartment complex I've ever lived in, but that isn't saying much. When we moved in, everything was clean and appeared in working order. A few months later, we started noticing that the paint was super cheap and would start coming off if anything rubbed against the walls. There are some wiggly outlets. The carpet comes up at the edges just from vacuuming and every day use. It was quiet for the first few months until a group of neighbors moved in that are constantly loud ...
    (and though there have been complaints, nothing has been done yet). The grounds used to be much cleaner when there was another maintenance staff as well. Now, there are cigarettes and trash all over. I don't like letting my daughter play outside because of the amount of it. The small workout room would be great, except the machinery isn't very well kept up. The ladies in the office are very nice though, and someone almost always comes out to fix issues that arise. Like I said, best I've ever lived in, but I lived in college housing before. This is an excellent transitional community if you're looking for a place to be temporarily.

  • You should be here!!!

    February 28, 2018
    The Patriots Apartment is very well laid out, spacious and affordable. There is always an abundance of parking. The maintenance staff is excellent and usually resolve my issues the same day as i place my request. There is a pool and a small fitness center as well as a dog park for those who require it. It is very quiet because of the location. It is back a bit from the busy street so there is no road noise and no one from other communities wander in. It is an excellent place to live and i ...
    am sure I will be here for a long long time. The property management team is also very friendly and courteous.

    February 26, 2018
    I have lived at this community for almost 13 years and truly enjoy my apartment living experience. The office staff is very friendly and always available to assist in any way. If there is ever an issue in the apartment the maintenance staff is prompt and efficient. Also, the complex feels safe as there is a courtesy officer that lives on site and is always available to assist in any manner. I wouldn’t want to live any place else!!!
