  • Maintenance is lacking, Parking is dark at night.

    January 15, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
    Security lights are needed at night, Cars are broken into, Catalytic converters are stolen, Lack of light is a security issue, no security cameras, carports have lights that are not turned on. Maintenance takes months and months to repair items.
