    I really enjoy living here overall. The amenities are great and make the community comfortable, but the neighbors could use a bit of improvement. Unfortunately, there are some issues with sticky fingers, and not everyone is picking up after their dogs, which is frustrating. On a positive note, Becca has been amazing—she’s incredibly compassionate, understanding, and always responds quickly, which I really appreciate. Personally, I haven’t had many problems aside from the occasional stolen package ...
    or missing meal, but nothing too major. Overall, it’s been a good experience!

    The Rail has been the upgrade I needed in an apartment home. The units are spacious with high ceilings and kept up nicely. Additionally, they are very clean and easy to maintain. The kitchen has lots of counter space for meal prepping and cooking. The water pressure is ideal and the A/C works great. The complex itself gives off modern, central city-living vibes. It is conveniently located near a bus stop and rail station (hence the name). In the neighborhood, you will see a lot of people jogging, ...
    riding, or walking their dogs. This means the area is safe and walkable. Overall, I have enjoyed my time at The Rail and am excited to continue living here.

    Living at The Rail has been a very pleasant experience for myself and my family. I love the high ceilings and the beautiful floor plan. I also love how I can almost never hear my neighbors. The pool is always clean - I notice and appreciate it very much. Britton has been my point of contact since before day one and has always been super polite and friendly. I’m sure the rest of the office staff is nice too. Definitely 10/10 stars for The Rail.

    10/10 would recommend. Makayla was very patient and helpful with the affordable housing application and the staff at the Rail has been easy to communicate with about any concerns I've had such as deliveries and utility set up. The apartment units look very nice with new appliances. I think my unit is perfect for me, as I am in one of the single studios. Overall it's been a great experience.
