    If you like your stuff, I'd look somewhere else.

    Very nice apartment complex, but not a great area. I got my car window broken into and my mountain bike stolen (both were locked on site in the complex's designated areas) all within a few months of moving in. Other people in the area have had their car's catalytic converter stolen. Atleast the pool area is nice though.
