Uptown Village Apartments

The apartments are spacious, bright, pleasant, and comfortable. But maintenance is inadequate and slow, and management staff is unresponsive and unhelpful. When everything is working properly, the apartment is fine. When something breaks, trying to get it fixed is apparently impossible. Management are happy to get in contact when it's THEIR problem, and they want residents to do something, but they fail to reply to messages from a resident with legitimate questions and concerns. Find somewhere… with management who at least pretend to care about the comfort of their residents. Read More

While the location is good and the community is quiet, I would not recommend living here due to serious shady management and maintenance issues. I had a maintenance emergency for my garbage disposal that was leaking and called more than three times with no answer, which is unacceptable for urgent situations. Additionally, work orders were marked as completed even though the repairs were never done. On top of that, I am being charged double for trash service without explanation, and have been… trying to get in contact with management, but they have not been picking up their calls. I would go to the office if could, but it would be impossible due to work. Furthermore, poor communication and lack of accountability make living here frustrating. If management improves, this could be a great place to live, but based on my experience. I would advise others to proceed with caution before signing a lease. Read More

former longtime resident - The apartment's common areas have been allowed to go to heck. Maintenance crews have quit time and time again, with some periods of weeks without a maintenance crew. Several pieces of gym equipment have been broken for years. Many, dangerous and lifting, gym floor tiles have not been replaced for years. Resident's common outdoors ranges have been broken for a year. Rotten, collapsed, outdoor pergola at the pool was left unrepaired for nearly a year. Once… repaired, not the way it was, it has not been painted. No landscape maintenance during the winter months. Large, heavy, commercial trucks are allowed to use several parking spots each. The quality of the tenants went down hill. Trash is allowed to be piled up for a week or more all around the trash compactors and recycle containers. Place is a mess. Read More

I spent a year living at uptown village. If you tour the complex you will see chained up grills in the pool area, a hole in ceiling of the mail room, a dumpster in the parking lot and yellow tape around the garbage compactors. These were here the day I moved in and will remain unfixed by the day I move out. The lack of complex upkeep seen across the community reflects the same maintenance upkeep seen inside each apartment. If you can remember the two hurricanes that hit Gainesville back to back… that is how long the drywall in my guest bedroom has been soaking wet, cracked, and potentially molding without being fixed by management. Uptown may seem affordable however the issues that run deep within this community will affect your daily living more than a better apartment will affect your wallet.

Do not move in here. Read More
