    JUST AWFUL

    The walls are PAPER thin, you can hear every word your neighbors say. When someone orders a package it is just thrown in front of the mailboxes anyone could steal them. There has been an outrageous about of car break-ins. Not the place to live if you want it to be peaceful. Lastly, there is no on-site leasing office, even though they advertise one.
