  • Used to be nice

    June 25, 2025
    My rent has increased over $500 over the last 5 years. I've had leaks and unrepaired mold each year from the unit above me. The fire alarm "accidentally"sounds every week between 2-6am, making sleep impossible. Management is awful and challenging to communicate with. Onsite crime is also through the roof, especially pertaining to car damage and theft in the garage. The mall parking lot across the street has violent gun crimes on par with 1-2 incidents power year. There's also nonstop noise if you ...
    face the mall, mainly from semi trucks unloading products to store fronts, street sweepers, merriweather concerts, and teenage car meets (revving engines). This used to be a decent community near convenient amenities. But it's all gone downhill with respect to cost, management, and safety.

    Love living in the Met! My balcony apartment is luxurious, spacious, clean, modern, and quiet. The staff is helpful and available, maintenance is responsive, and the location cannot be beat. It is well-worth the price I pay for rent.

    The Metropolitan Columbia is as close as one can get to worry-free living at its best! Our three bedroom two-year-old unit is well built and well designed: kitchen center island, like new GE appliances, huge MBR walk-in closet, large bathrooms, loads of natural light streaming through eight-foot windows in every room. The well maintained common areas are large and well appointed. The gym is open 24/7, (too early to make use of the outdoor pool and grills). All associated with managing and ...
    maintaining the building are helpful and pleasant. Having gone through downsizing to a succession of three condominiums over the years, have sold one and now lease the other two. At this stage in our lives my wife and I agree, The Metropolitan offers true freedom of worry-free living!
