I was fooled by outward appearances just like one of the reviews on here mentioned. I moved in and within 6 weeks I have realized it is nothing like what you think you are signing on for. They make you sign 10 pages of rules in the lease and then you find out that they don't enforce any of them except the ones that inconvenience the staff, such as they don't empty the trash compactor frequently enough for how many tenants they have, and when it starts overflowing onto the sidewalk they send out
...an email telling tenants to not leave their trash on the sidewalk, because they have to clean it up by hand. They prefer you keep your trash inside your home instead of spending the money to have the compactor emptied more often. Instead of putting in more poo receptacles for dog waste, they merely relocate existing ones to more distant points throughout the complex as they expand with construction. Which doesn't matter anyway because hardly anyone picks up their dogs waste. And the construction noises are obnoxious, yes. Then on my only day off I have per week so far I have had a neighbor painting in the garage below me then close the door and leave their residence only to have the fumes wafting up into my apartment and no action taken by the staff when contacted. I am writing this after having left my apartment for 3 hours with the windows open in 30 degree temperatures and it still is making my wife and I lightheaded. And my only day off last week there was a world star incident with two girls fighting and screaming for half an hour before the police arrived. No joke, there is a video on youtube if you search emerald twenty four lexington kentucky. Then just a couple days later I walk by that apartment where two guys are sitting in a car smoking marijuana and how brazen they were because a cop lives in the next apartment building. This place is not quite what you expect when you look at the amount for rent. I am going to stay in a hotel tonight because the staff basically said they cannot enter their apartment to air out their garage because of security reasons and they will let them know to not do this again. Also, if we just air out our apartment it should be fine, it is 30 fricking degrees, sure we will just sleep with the windows open and have the heat on full blast. They going to pay my electric? It clearly states to not use those products in closed air environments and my wife and I both have had respiratory issues.
