  • The Crest is ok

    September 30, 2015
    If you are looking for a starter apartment, the Crest is awesome! The rent is affordable and includes free utilities. The only additional expense you'll have is a card operated laundry center, which is actually pretty convenient. The apartments all have accent walls in the living room. The staff are friendly and you'll like your neighbors. I'm only moving because I need more space.

  • First time

    September 15, 2015
    I have a one bedroom apartment, I am also a first time renter and I thought that this was the perfect place for me. Top thing I would like to mention about the apartment is the location. It is close to everything. Work, hospital, food store, you name and it's close. That is a great benefit to me and the environment because I will have less miles to drive and save on money.

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.
