Living over Crosswinds (6121 N May, 73112) was really a nightmare, I just hated it! I am so glad I moved out! The apartments over there were absolutely noisy and unsafe. A few days before I moved out, cops came over Crosswinds and told me to be careful as the neighbor sharing my patio raped a girls living in the complex and they were looking for him. This shows that the staff is really unprofessional as they are supposed to check peoples criminal record before letting them move in! Also, I have seen from my balcony some residents doing and dealing drugs in their cars in the parking of the complex almost every night! As a girl, I felt very unsafe living at Crosswinds every time my husband went to work. Not only Crosswinds is a drug dealers shelter, but it also accommodates professional thieves. Indeed, Ive had my furniture stolen when I left my apartment for only 10mn, to go to the store across the street! Another thing, do not believe Crosswinds staff when they tell you this complex is a peaceful and quiet place . It is NOT! The neighbors and the cars are SO loud 24/7, and they dont show any kind of respect for the community. If you want to sleep over Crosswinds, I strongly advice you to get some good sleeping pills! I mean, you can hear kids scream till 6 in the morning as they are always hyper and never sleep, or hear the neighbors playing loud music just like at the clubs! I will never forget that night, when I went to my balcony and saw my neighbor and his drunken friends throwing beers and peeing from their balcony! That was not as quiet as the management told me& In fact, I should have invited the staff to spend a night over my place. Maybe, they would have agreed with me on the quietness of the complex after that.
I am so shocked Crosswinds management never ever tried to calm the disturbances in the complex to make it a better, safer, and secure place for the residents!
Every time I tried to talk to the staff, they have been really rude, and they never took in account any of my maintenance requests and complaints. They are clearly unprofessional because they dont make the residents feel welcome and it is just useless to ask them for help as they are never willing to help.
This is really sad that they dont renovate the apartments because they are so old and the equipments are getting inefficient. And it is sadder that the residents have to remind and even beg the staff several times before they come and fix the problems. One day, my oven was not working no more, and I called the Crosswinds office so that they come fix it because I was having guests for diner the same night. The maintenance never showed up and it took them a week to finally come over my apartment to fix it. I cant believe the staff was giving me an attitude and getting made because I asked them to fix my oven.
It started to be unbearable and I could not wait for my lease to expire so I could leave this nightmare. Also, I was very embarrassed to have my friends coming over my place because the walkways are littered with cigarettes ends, dirt, insects and garbage, and are almost never cleaned. I talked to many residents about it when I was still living there, and all of them were very unhappy about the management and the conditions of living over Crosswinds. The management only thinks about taking peoples money and doesnt feel bad to get rid of some residents whenever they feel like it. Most of the time, the management office closed way before it was supposed to and it was hard to get hold of the staff. And when I did, they had an attitude and never helped. This complex really needs renovations, some security the nights, and I would even suggest changing the staff. If the residents were really happy about leaving there, how the management does explains the number of people packing up their stuff and leaving as soon as possible everyday? I truly dont recommend people living at Crosswinds because they will never get the service they expect!
