La Esencia Apartments

Absolutely TERRIBLE new management! They don’t work with you, they charge you all these extra fees that don’t go towards you actually living there, the property manger never wants to do her job, her assistant always got an attitude! They don’t fix ANYTHING !

I am usually of the mind that if you have nothing nice to say, DON’T say it. (Check my reviews they are all positive lol)

First of all, I have lived in my fair share of bottom of the barrel, old, nasty apartments. This is by far the most ratchet, ghetto place I have ever seen and no, it’s not the neighbors, they all generally seem chill lol.

Do you love cold showers? Good because there will never be a drop of hot water for you here! Do you like having flea infestations when you don’t even own... a pet? Great! Because you’ll have both fleas AND a new pet from the pack of feral cats roaming the grounds. You won’t even need a litter box for your new pet because the mulch sand combo in the dilapidated children's play area seems to work just fine.

There is a fabulous laundry area with washing machines that come prefilled to the very top with an organic algae water solution. It’s conveniently located next to the equally frothy green swimming pool and carefully detailed landscaping ponds filled with what looks to be used motor oil, which you should be able to easily see through the holes in the walls and roof while you do your laundry. You may also want to invest in some rubber boots because the grounds flood generously in the event of a light sprinkle, and the parking areas stay sopping with sand and mud at all times.

You will feel very safe as the police are generally always here running someone down or knocking on doors to evict residents. There is also a wonderful security company here to keep watch and make sure you don’t park in the wrong parking place. You’ll never have to worry about your car getting stolen again because you will get towed so often your car is never actually here!

Last but not least you will receive wonderful letters of affirmation from your management company, telling YOU not to come into the office being “ratchet”, detailing how they will shut off your lights and water if you are late on rent, and forcibly enter your home with police should you fall on hard times for too long.

I could probably write a whole book on this place, but trust me and take that $200-300 a month you WILL be spending to get your car out of the impound each month, and find something, anything better than this where they can at least pretend to care about the people who live there. Read More

Between the trash, sewage leaks, roaches, and frequent police force visits this complex is far from described. Do not waste your time, let alone money, it’s literally a dump. Stairs and grounds are covered in trash, liter, and animal waste. Pond is a scummy mosquito pit. Pool looks like it could be a pond. The “state of art” gym is one piece of machinery. The laundry facilities are moldy and muddy with most of the machines out of order as they are filled with scum and trash. It’s a huge health... hazard. It should really be reported to the city. The gates are broken, as are most of the stairs. They evicted a tenant from one unit but left the unit unlocked and the door wide open with random people coming and going for almost a week before police and maintenance came together and in the end they simply nailed two huge sheets of plywood over the door and they left all the trash and things like broken mirrors from the tenant laying around for the rest of the buildings tenants to put up with. Some of the units have broken windows with plastic taped over them, and several of the balconies and patios are severely damaged. For several days there was sewage leaking up in several spots over the grounds. The sidewalks between buildings are nearly invisible underneath layers of mud and trash. We keep our trash outside, no open food, no dishes in the sink, and regularly scrub down the whole place, and use roach bait and repellent, yet we cannot rid the unit of roaches. With all of these problems (not even mentioning those with the other tenants such as drugs, domestic violence, gun shootings, etc) the management has yet to make any effort to solve a single one. There is no maintenance being done here at all. Read More
