Lack of being able to tour before signing was unfortunate. A bit less modern than the pictures make it seem. Sometimes there’s is confusion with the leasing office, but all in all a nice place to live

Thus far, my experience has been excellent! The maintenance team is very responsive with maintenance related issues and the management team is very proactive in assisting tenants.

I’ve throughly enjoyed my time at the social and find the staff to be very helpful in all aspects of living there. They always communicate early and often about specific events or various updates. I also like that they plan and provide fun activities for the tenants; it’s something that I feel like a lot of other places don’t do, so it helps to make you feel more at home.

Quiet and respectful neighbors. The dog and cat community here is a plus. The unit itself is very well sized with plenty of room everyone to have their own space as well as combined space.
