    2016-2020 Review

    I lived in a 1 bedroom apartment on the first floor from June of 2016 to December of 2020. I found management/maintenance to be very helpful and responsive. I did get a few crickets from time to time, but it was not enough to bother me. My minor issue was that one of the laundry room electronic credit card readers was never working. Eventually I just loaded up on quarters and was fine.

    This is also the first apartment that I have ever gotten my full security deposit back after moving out.
    They have helped me out when I get locked out very quickly. I had the best neighbors I have ever had, everyone was very friendly and accommodating. They would look after my packages if I was at work and they would even talk to management on my behalf if there was anything I needed.

    Management always responded to my email questions or concerns very quickly. If I needed help with anything they would schedule time and send over maintenance right away. I had my elderly mom visit for a few months from Florida and she loved walking around the complex talking to everyone and exploring. I got married and purchased a house last year otherwise I would have been happy to stay in Douglass Gardens for another couple years.

    Edit: 1 last thing, I saw that someone did not like the flood lights that were installed, but I loved them. It made me and my guests feel very safe when the entire parking lot was fully illuminated every night.
