    Proud New Residents of The Cooper Moving into The Cooper in Forest Acres has been a breath of fresh air. After everything I dealt with at my last place, this upgrade feels like peace. The community is quiet, the area is clean, and the location is perfect — close to everything without feeling crowded. The apartment itself is modern, comfortable, and actually maintained, which already puts it miles ahead of where I came from. The move-in process was smooth, and the staff has been helpful and ...
    responsive. It finally feels like I’m in a place that values its residents instead of ignoring them. If you’re looking for a calm, safe, well-kept place in Forest Acres, The Cooper is worth it. I’m genuinely happy with my decision to move here.

    Horrible The apartment is always leaking or flooding. Roach infested, air not working, outlets not working. Toilets, sinks, and bathtubs backing up. The water is being shut off at least once a week. Every week.. this is my second apartment because the first one was always flooding, and they couldn't fix it. Maintenance is slow and will say anything to avoid work, And some of the management team, are rude,a nd insensitive.

    Sharon Maintenance response is timely. Quiet community and excellent location. Office staff are helpful. Maintenance keeps the Area clean. It feels like a real community the way the apartments are setup. I also have a "virtual assistant" who checks monthly to make sure my needs are being met.

    I will advise anybody who's gonna live in the Cooper apartments don't do it. They take the time of fixing anything But they always wants to go up on your rent And the front office is no better But when you threaten them and said you go in over the head That's when I want to have a meeting with you. Don't do it. I can't wait to put my 60 days in
