I've been living in one of the older buildings here for about five years and I have nothing negative to report. What I like most is the area itself; it's quiet, nice to stroll around in, has well-spaced buildings, and a plethora of wildlife (deer, birds, even chipmunks). Plus, you'd never guess you're in the middle of a park when Walmart is just within walking distance! My apartment is one of the cheaper/older ones (there are newer ones with different floorplans), but it suits my needs. The appliances are decent and windows are large. Central heating & AC is also great. My upstairs neighbor's floor sometimes creaks but there's good soundproofing since I'm on the bottom floor. Some apartments also have beautiful views (unfortunately mine does not - though my cat loves watching all the birds!). In terms of price vs quality ratio, I was satisfied as well when apartment hunting here before. Lastly, Gia - who's an amazing property manager - has been so accommodating regarding lease extensions during my move to Seattle; maintenance staff are also top-notch at keeping outside looking neat & tidy.
