    I am very satisfied with the care I receive at this complex. Whenever I need something done, it’s done within a couple of days. Mr. Rickey is an awesome apartment manager. We appreciate everything he does for us. This is a great place to live. The security is great. There are working cameras everywhere. I would recommend this place to anyone.
