    Nice Property- close to work

    The location is probably one of the biggest reasons I like it. It’s really close to work and also close to all the bars and stuff downtown, but you don’t get nearly as much noise as you would if you were actually living on Court Ave.

    There have been some things that could definitely be better, but I feel like things have gotten better recently and it seems like there’s been more effort to address some of the issues like better communication. Hopefully that keeps going because I like living here
    … and would like to stay. If things keep improving, I’d have no problem continuing to live at Rowat.
