Very nice maintenance guys , who are very friendly as well. Good neighbors, even though I don't know them, never had any troub … le. Cons: Most apartments lack dual pane windows , so noise is on the higher side due to regular maintenance activities going on in other apartments, so if you are a person who works from home a lot, be ready. Rent increase was $230 for a one bed for 2017-2018 cycle. And there is easily a $100 on top of your rent advertised (monthly) Extra car parking is paid, but there is always someone who parks in your spot, in the internal community website , this is the top complaint. more » Pros: This is a very good apartment community to live, overall.
