    Don't live here!

    First off, the rent is insanely expensive considering the old appliances, loose outlets, water damage, bad paint job, terrible parking lot (also not guaranteed you'll have a spot), and dirty premises. Property management is extremely frustrating to work with, not helpful in most if not all situations, and maintenance takes forever to respond, let alone fix problems when they arise.
