There is a small of marijuana in the buildings, as people smoke and drink in the back stairwells. Some apartments have up to 10-15 tenants living in them (in a 1240 square foot apartment in buildings I, H and J). Children run the streets at all hours of the night, as young as 2. They refuse to move out of the road for incoming or exiting vehicles and may one day cause a serous accident. Drug dealers live in building 2012, right above management, and several tenants have witnessed drug deals at various times during the day.
The maintenance staff is outstanding. They respond quickly and are very courteous, but then there is the office staff. You are asked to deal with all problems yourself, like the smell of marijuana throughout the buildings, the neighbors radio so loud it causes pictures to fall off your wall, the neighbors above you so loud (at all hours of the night) you are unable to sleep. The only advice the office manager will give is to knock on your neighbors door and talk with them. Don't expect to have any major repair work done on the building either. Floors are thin and furniture moves when you walk past it. You can hear everything your neighbor above you is doing by all the sounds, washer/ dryer running, using the restroom, taking a shower, rolling over in bed, rocking in their chairs in the front room. No matter how quiet they might try to be, you can hear everything! Several complaints have been made, but no action is ever taken.
It's a shame that renters like myself, who pay thier rent on-time or even before it's due, must put up with rude and indescent behavior. Although the convenience of being so close to the elementary, middle and high school is great, the neighbors aren't. Unless you like the smell of pot, lots of loud Mexican music, kids refusing to let you drive down the road, and yelling at the office staff since they are uncooperative, then this is the perfect place for you. Good luck!
