dont live here i advice you

November 23, 2016 - Review from Apartments.com

I regret giving even one star to this apartment this is by far the most disgusting apartment I have ever seen very I mean very poor customer service they never answer the phone and very rude the maintenance very poor takes them about 2 weeks to fix something the apartment is got roaches and bed bugs and very dirty I would strongly advice you please don't even think about living in forest gardens pay a little more but live in a better safer and cleaner place trust me it’s worth it.

Nasty

August 2, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com

Forest Garden apartments is not a place any human should live. The apartments are rundown. There are roaches and bedbugs. When you request something to be fix, no matter if it's a leakage or something that's an emergency, they take about a week to respond.

I see the green

July 21, 2015 - Review from Apartments.com

Since, I've lived here for 9 years I would be able to say I've seen the apartment complex stay neat, and it's very welcoming to outsiders.
