Mirada

I lived here for 3 years, and it has been an exhausting experience. It is hard to find any sense of stability when the building goes through a constant turnover of ownership; it feels like the property changes hands about 4 times a year.
Management always uses the excuse that the construction is just a short term project but it has been an ongoing, daily nightmare for all three years I’ve been here. You can never truly relax in your own home. Between the endless, nerve-wracking drilling with... tractors, the roaring rooftop AC units, and the piercing train horns and rail noise right outside, my peace of mind was completely destroyed.
The property is cutting every corner possible at the expense of residents. The leasing staff is so blatantly overworked that you see the same office people struggling to handle vacuuming, trash duty, and groundskeeping themselves. Because they refuse to invest a single dime into the building, maintenance is completely non-existent. When you bring up distressing issues like mold, poor water quality, or pests, they don't help you. Instead, they get defensive and completely dismiss you. If a fix requires actual money, they completely delete your maintenance tickets from the system to pretend the problem doesn’t exist.
Because the staff is stretched to a breaking point, basic human upkeep is entirely forgotten. The common areas are filthy and only cleaned once in a blue moon. Even simple, promised community comforts; like a functioning coffee station; are left empty and abandoned for weeks on end.
The building's ventilation is a disaster. The hallways, elevators, and balconies constantly reek of heavy weed smoke and deep trash odors. Worse, inside the apartment unit itself, there is a very stale smell, and the air feels incredibly heavy and damp like living in a swamp even during the months of March and April without turning on the heater, which is absolutely not normal. It ruins your quality of life because you can't open your windows or step onto your balcony to air it out without being choked by the strong cigarette and weed smells outside.
Home should be a sanctuary, but the atmosphere here is incredibly tense and uncomfortable. The management team always looks completely miserable, glaring and frowning at residents. It makes you feel like an absolute burden for asking for basic, livable conditions.
After three long years of watching this place fall apart through endless corporate handovers, my best advice is to stay far away. Read More

I lived here for four years. When I first moved in, the experience was acceptable but the quality of living declined steadily over time, and I would not recommend this property to prospective residents without serious reservations due to yearly constructions.
The apartment units themselves are poorly designed : awkward layouts, inadequate ventilation, and persistent moisture and mold issues that management was slow to take seriously. The level of moisture in the units is not normal and is... something I have not experienced in other apartments. This is a significant concern and something prospective renters should ask about directly and inspect carefully before signing a lease.
Construction was a constant presence throughout my time here, and it became clear the building has underlying issues that go beyond cosmetic wear. Hallways and elevators frequently smelled of mildew, which points to deeper moisture and airflow problems throughout the building.
Common areas were poorly maintained — the clubhouse coffee machine was out of service for months at a stretch, and restrooms regularly lacked basic supplies. Smoking policy was essentially unenforced, leaving persistent cigarette and marijuana odors throughout shared spaces, made worse by inadequate ventilation.
Maintenance was unreliable. Work orders would sometimes disappear from the resident portal entirely, meaning repairs simply never happened unless you caught it and resubmitted. Given the building's structural shortcomings, this was particularly concerning.
Management was reactive at best: proactive communication and consistent follow-through were rare.
After four years, I chose not to renew. I'd encourage anyone considering this property to inspect units carefully for signs of moisture and mold, ask current residents about their experience, and weigh their options carefully before committing. Read More

I had a very disappointing experience living here and was relieved when I finally moved out. During my time as a resident, I encountered multiple ongoing issues that negatively affected my quality of life including bad maintenance services, rude staffs, ongoing construction every year disrupting residents. While others may have had different experiences, mine was unfortunately very poor. I sincerely wish the staff and future residents all the best.

Mirada was bought by Morgan properties back in February maybe. They have been making improvements, which is great, but the way they have been going about it is extremely frustrating. They often will give EXTREMELY short notices about things that residents need to do like moving their cars for parking lot repairs, or clearing off their front porch. More so, when they went to repair the parking lot, there were no more valid spots to park in so I had to park 20 minutes away and walk.

The actual... rooms are nice and we've had no problems. Maintenance is responsive and does good work. If things remained as before, Then would be more inclined to give a higher rating. Read More

I am glad to be leaving after living through what felt like years of ongoing construction and disruption. In my experience, construction and maintenance projects seemed to be a recurring issue, often affecting parking and the overall living environment for extended periods.

One example that stood out to me was the property's approach to exterior maintenance. The buildings were regularly power washed, but balconies and windows were not washed. Given the recurring pest issues I experienced,... including fruit flies, mosquitoes, beetles and bit ants, it was frustrating to see effort put into improving the property's appearance while areas that directly affected residents seemed to be overlooked. At other apartment communities where I have lived, balconies and windows were routinely cleaned as part of exterior maintenance.

While the property's appearance and leasing office make a positive first impression, I felt that the condition of the apartments and common living areas did not match that image. I experienced persistent musty and mildew odors due to poor ventilation in the building, recurring pest concerns, and ongoing disruptions from construction and maintenance work.

For me, it often felt like more attention was given to maintaining curb appeal than addressing issues that affected residents' day-to-day quality of life. After several years, I decided it was time to move on and find a community that better met my expectations. Read More
