The District at Clearwater

They charge for water, sewer, trash AND valet trash, & washer/dryer rent! Around $250 /month in fees (which aren't pro-rated when you move out.)
You must pay for valet trash but it isn't always collected. So it just fills the breezeway drawing vermin & stinking!
There are only 2 handyman to service this complex AND their larger one in Tampa. The garbage disposal remained broken for more than 2 months after repair was requested.
There are maybe a dozen guest parking spots on the entire… property & they are always occupied by tenants since each apartment has only 1 parking space.
All I can say is KEEP LOOKING!! Read More

Save yourself the money and do not live here just because rent is decent compared to other places. I’ve had nothing but a bad experience ever since I moved in 2 weeks ago. First we were supposed to move in on august 2nd but weren’t able to because of work that week so we couldn’t move in until Saturday august 7th. We got to our apartment all ready for move in after a 7 hour drive and had all of our stuff only to find out from staff that our apartment was not move in ready and the walls still… needed to be painted and a faucet needed to be fixed and it couldn’t be done until Monday. So we had to stay in a hotel for 2 days and couldn’t move in until late Monday. They had the whole week to do this “walk through” that they had to do but waited until the last minute. Once we moved in, it was very obvious that a “walk through” had never even done because our patio screen door was completely off, our kitchen sink has a major leak, there’s a crack on our bedroom window, the second bedroom and the patio are both missing a light/fan, the laundry room sliding door fell off first time opening, the fridge is missing a shelf and a drawer and the magnetic strip to keep the cold air in is detached from the door, our washer would rumble uncontrollably mid cycle, the floors seemed like they’ve never been cleaned before, mold in our shower, and the walls had scratches on them and paint pieces missing aka not repainted at all. In the two weeks that we’ve lived here we’ve complained twice and only one thing has been fixed. They blame all of these issues on maintenance being short staffed but that’s inexcusable for someone having to wait to move in for there to still be problems. It’s been a terrible experience so far and I hope that whoever decides to move here anyways has a better experience. Read More

They are decent apartments once you clean them. Mine was dirty at move-in, including nicotine stains on the ceiling. Maintenance has been prompt though. We had no issue with rodents or bugs as others had mentioned, and the apartments seemed well insulated.(not much outside noise)
My biggest concern were the fees. I was told it would be around $100.00 but it's actually double. Budget at least $200.00 a month, mostly because of trash, sewer, and water. Rent goes up every year. It seems that… there are always new ways to charge you. A charge to charge you. There is a pet deposit, pet rent, and pet registration that charges a fee. On move out, they will contract a service to fumigate/clean your apartment if you had a pet. That will be an extra move-out charge.
Peace and quiet depend on your fellow renters. Some years have been better than others and usually reflect society as a whole. The staff is courteous enough - it is a business for profit and they work to protect their interests, which is ok. Some staff seems to also live there, which helps. Overall efforts are made to keep the place clean and safe. At this point, the cost is outpacing the benefits and I would have preferred more transparency about the "hidden" costs. Read More

DO NOT LIVE HERE. First, hope that nothing goes wrong in your apartment because the whole complex doesn’t care at all and the communicate is non existent. Our fridge and freezer went out on Christmas and we lost everything. Maintenance was supposed to come this morning at 10am at the latest to provide us with options for a temp fridge. We have yet to hear anything and when we went to the office, Bobbi was the rudest individual I have ever dealt with. She said if it happened to her she “would… have kept her fridge closed or put stuff in a cooler” and also that “she sent a text to maintenance but does not have a number that we can contact to reach him” I find this to be extremely rude. She was unwilling to help or even have an ounce of empathy for our situation. Not to mention during summer we had to wait 3 months for a new AC and our apartment averaged 85 degrees. Like I said no not live here. Read More
