Terrible Management

January 10, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
Avoid this company at all costs. This company lacks responsibility, doesn’t maintain their building, and management is a joke. Do yourself a favor and find somewhere else to live.

Great location

May 2, 2018 - Review from Apartments.com
The location great - close to shopping and a variety of restaurants.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on scale of 1 (below average) and to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
