    Been here for a couple of years now and it used to be a good place to live but a lot has changed. The apartments are nice plus you have an in unit washer and dryer and some paid utilities very good for the price......BUT wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. It takes forever to get things fixed, office staff is no help, sometimes trash is just thrown any -where, the kids are terrible and bullies, the neighborhood and area is just awful every time you turn around you here gun shots and sirens… all around you....and a business in the area has gotten robbed
