I absolutely loved my time living at The Greens. I moved in right when the complex opened in March 2014 and moved out in March 2019. During my five years there, I never had any problems with any of the staff or any major problems with my apartment/the facilities. The apartments are impeccably kept. When you have a maintenance issue, you submit an online request through the resident portal and someone quickly repairs it. I never had any issue in my apartment last more than one day. Sometimes
...things can be a little loud in the apartment, but no more than any other complex I have lived in. I heard my neighbors above me, and my neighbor below me came up to let me know he heard me, too. Most residents are courteous about noise. I loved every person in the office. From signing my lease, to picking up too many Amazon packages, and to saying goodbye after five years, I always had pleasant visits with everyone in the office. Further, everyone was always helpful and had answers to all my many questions. There are fun resident events throughout the year, sometimes breakfast on the go or a Christmas present wrapping event. As for the common areas, the "caves" in each building are nice places with a lot of fun games and pleasant of cooking spaces. There are reasonable quiet hours for the areas, so there isn't usually a noise problem. However, and this is my only con about the common area, is that my apartment balcony opened to the "cave" and sometimes the noise would echo up and I could hear it loudly in my apartment. About five times, residents would use these later than the set hours. However, The Greens was great about enforcing the rules in these areas & keeping things quiet and clean. When moving out, I thought The Greens was fair about any repair costs. They were very considerate of what was just normal wear & tear after 5 years and what I should have to pay for, and I did not feel overcharged. The location is great. I went to school and worked downtown and had an easy commute. It is close to 40, downtown, and Western Boulevard (which you can take to 440). While being close to everything, there is still little traffic and tons of green space. It is a quick walk to the Farmers Market, Lake Raleigh, & Hunt Library. I cannot recommend this complex emphatically enough. It is my favorite place I've ever lived and a great place to call home while in Raleigh.
