    Good apartments, maintenance and office team needs to be improved because they do not provide help to residents when needed and avoid Cortes conversation with residents.

    I’ve really enjoyed my time living at The Ridge so far. The apartments are modern and spacious, and the amenities are a big plus — especially the pool and gym. The staff is usually friendly and responsive to maintenance requests, which get handled in a reasonable time. Parking can be a bit tight sometimes, and it does get a little noisy on weekends, but that’s expected for student housing. Overall, it’s a good place to live if you want a fun community and decent value for what you pay.

    Maintenance here is terrible. They have continuously marked things as complete when they did not fix the issue at all. The AC vent outside is extremely loud, to a point of hearing it when I’m in my room. I think somethings wrong with it as well. Also, there are random alarms that will go off during the day, late at night or early in the morning. They have woken me up out of my sleep on several occasions and I work 12hr shifts so it is pretty bothersome to say the least.

    This apartment used to be a nice place to live until this school year. One of my roommates lived rent free and thought our apartment was home for all her family including young children. Nothing happened until my other roommates and I fought with the office enough until finally they did something about it. This by the way took months. We also didnt have a working dryer for months and there was absolutely no urgency for it to be fixed. Finally when my one roommate violated the lease they didn't ...
    care and validated that they approved it, which means the property manager themself is breaking the lease. I have had a beyond horrible experience and I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy.

    The Ridge is not only a beautiful apartment, but also while touring it I think I loved it even more because of my tour person/tour guide.
