    Do not live here!

    August 20, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
    I would strongly caution anyone considering Highlander at North Campus. The model unit I toured was nothing like the units I actually lived in. My first apartment was dirty and stained at move-in, and my second had previous tenants' belongings and expired/open food still in the cabinets and refrigerator, which appeared to contribute to an infestation. Throughout my time here, I also experienced unreliable Wi-Fi (including outages during finals week), package theft, poorly communicated water ...
    shutoffs, filthy elevators/common areas, and safety concerns around the building. I found management consistently unhelpful when these issues were brought to their attention. By my final few months, I chose to move back in with my parents and commute from Los Angeles to UCR despite still paying rent here. I would genuinely rather make that commute than live at Highlander again. Please read critical reviews carefully and look beyond the staged model unit before signing a lease.

    DO NOT LIVE HERE

    April 4, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
    This student housing is an absolute nightmare. Homeless people occupy the hallways, turning it into a safety hazard. The area is a breeding ground for crime, with numerous reported attacks on residents. Car break-ins are rampant. The management couldn't care less once you've signed the contract. Even after having a positive pre-checkout inspection to avoid cleaning fees, they still charged extra and are not responding to any of my emails. The place is infested with spiders and roaches crawling ...
    out of every crevice. Don't be fooled by the deceivingly nice pictures online; this place is a complete dump. And to top it off, the AC barely works, making living conditions unbearable. Steer clear of this hellhole at all costs.

    Go somewhere else

    June 1, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
    Been here since 2019. Been dealing with roaches, people letting their dogs pee & poop in the halls, elevator, & sidewalks. Package theft. Dirty halls that recently started to be cleaned once in awhile. Trash bags in the halls for days because of trash valet causing the place to reek. Homeless living in halls, staircases, & right outside the courtyard. Only reasons we stayed was because of in unit washer & dryer, it’s across the street from stater bros, & walking distance from campus. It does ...
    come furnished, but it’s dated & worn down. Management sucks. Maintenance team is cool.

    Worst apartments to live at

    August 4, 2020 - Review from Apartments.com
    I don’t even know where to start. They give tenants apartments in poor conditions but charge an arm and a leg simply because they provide a few extra amenities. There is a pest infestation on all of the apartments. Security is a joke, homeless people are always coming into the complex and sleeping on the stairs and going through the trash. They claim to be a smoke free environment but all you can ever smell is cigarettes and marijuana every night. Also, upon move out, expect to be charged $50 for ...
    one of their underpaid student workers to come into your apartment and clean a piece of lint off of your sink (wish I was exaggerating).
