The Durant Apartments

which took us away from Flint. Our biggest regret wasn't leaving Flint, but indeed leaving The Durant! It was always a pleasure to come into the building as it was maintained spotlessly, the neighbors were friendly, and we never heard any noise from another unit. That meant we had a peaceful and safe environment to call home. Being located downtown was a great advantage as we were so close to events and leisure spots that were within easy walking distance. The location also provided me with a convenient route to my work, parks, and freeway access. If you get the chance to ever live in Flint, don't pass The Durant by as your first choice for living in a wonderful environment. You will love it also!

countertops, and tile flooring in kitchen and bath. Despite the modern upgrade the complex retains the charm of a 1920's style luxury hotel with high ceilings, crafted moldings great views and an awesome lobby entrance. The community of tenants at The Durant is a diverse one and consists of students, retirees, young couples and professionals. Given the proximity of the complex to two educational institutions and the number of student tenants, I initially was concerned about the potential for noise and generally disruptive behavior. This concern was quickly allayed upon meeting many of my neighbors who I found to be friendly and respectful of their fellow tenants and their schedules, never loud or disruptive and quite simply good neighbors. An additional attribute of The Durant is that the entire complex is non-smoking, an unusual policy at most apartment complexes but an important one. In sum, The Durant is a well-placed, recently renovated historic downtown building with the modern amenities expected in a luxury apartment. Its management is responsive to tenant needs and its tenants, though diverse in age, occupation and tenancy are some of the nicest neighbors that one could have.

amazing and my apartment has a wonderful view of downtown Flint and the Flint River. The Flint Farmers Market is just a short walk away, as well the many great restaurants and stores. I love that I am able to access any major highway with the central location of The Durant. The University of Michigan-Flint is directly across the street which makes the walk to class quite easy. Even with the close proximity to the school, The Durant maintains a non-party atmosphere with several families living in the building. In regards to the water, I have had no issues with lead, and have not been affected by the Flint Water Crisis. I feel secure raising my family in this environment and would in no way place my child into a situation I feel would present danger. The staff provide water filters for those that need them. Overall, I enjoy and recommend The Durant as a living environment.
