The Vue at Westchester Commons

I advise anyone looking to move here to check google reviews as well. This place was poorly managed when I lived here and was honestly a terrible first experience for renting. After working in property management, I would never recommend anyone live here.

Living at The Vue in Westchester Commons was really special for us. We moved in during July 2020, at the beginning of the pandemic, and we just moved out this month (August 2024) to be closer to family in another state. We could have stayed forever.

Whitney helped us find the perfect apartment. She walked us through the leasing process and everything we needed to know, especially since I was selling our house after 20 years.

We chose a place right up front on the third floor. The balcony is… HUGE and became an additional room for us with different holiday decorations throughout the year and a big area for comfortable seating.

Maintenance is super-friendly and attentive to tenants’ needs. After the first year, they felt like family to us, because they truly care. A few years ago, Michael solved a weather-related problem for us in five minutes. I was clueless what to do, and his simple fix lasted the remainder of our stay.

The lobby, halls, and elevators are well-maintained. The views from the Sky Lounge and the swimming pool are beautiful. They offer a nice small gym and several gathering places throughout the two buildings.

The Vue hosts monthly events with food, recreation opportunities, and contests that are truly amazing. There’s a non-smoking policy which I appreciate, and last summer, there was even a little farmer’s market in our parking lot. Plus, all of the excitement of Westchester Commons is at your fingertips.

We had both groceries and DoorDash delivered frequently with ease. Our kitchen was huge and open with a deep sink and lots of cabinet space. I miss that already!

The bathrooms and closets are gigantic, too. Everything feels safe and secure in the building. The mailroom and locker system is fantastic. Our neighbors are so kind. I had people holding doors open and offering to take my garbage bags outside for me on numerous occasions. Speaking of garbage, the Trash Fairies are worth their weight in gold. That system is amazing and worked so well for our needs.

Things were quiet and well-lit, and we were generally in heaven throughout our four years. I must say that my favorite experience of all was getting to know the people who worked and lived at The Vue. I miss them already. They are family, too. Read More

Be sure to paint the apartment before leaving, they took my deposit of $200. $175 for the paint.

If you move to another apartment there before the lease end, they will charge you also $500.

Everything else is fine.

New apartment buildings, so the look and amenities are good. That's where it all ends. Walls are so thin you can hear your neighbor sneeze. If you get a neighbor who is not courteous, expect to live in hell for the duration of your lease with no assistance from management. Rules are not enforced so many residents are frustrated. It is a 50/50 chance that the elevator works. Maintenance is the best thing about the building. He is friendly and professional. Management is great at keeping snacks in… a fridge for tours and for making social media posts, but don't expect them to actually manage the property appropriately. Overall, some like being here and some don't. I don't! Read More
