I strongly advise against living here if safety is a priority for you. The apartment is located just one block from a homeless shelter, and it’s not uncommon to see individuals loitering around the building. On multiple occasions, I witnessed people using drugs in plain sight, which is deeply concerning.
The security measures are severely lacking. The entry gate has been broken for months, leaving the property vulnerable and allowing anyone to enter. Despite weekly calls to management about
...repairs, I was repeatedly told the owners hadn’t approved any action. As a result, homeless individuals have taken to sleeping in the gated areas, and the parking gate also fails to lock, and the homeless camp directly in front of it.
The so-called “on-site security officer” is essentially just a voicemail system, which offers little reassurance in an emergency.
Upon moving in, I was appalled by the cleanliness of the apartment. The bathroom was filthy, with a two-inch black ring in the toilet and covered in urine. Additionally, the hallways frequently smell strongly of weed, making it an uncomfortable environment.
Management has been unresponsive and ineffective. There have been two different management teams since I signed my lease, with each promising improvements that never materialized. The property is being listed on VRBO for short stays, which is a result of the high vacancy rates.
In short, my experience here has been overwhelmingly negative, and I urge anyone considering this apartment to think twice. If you are a university student this is not the place for you!
