I have lived here for 1 month now. The grounds and apartment are very nice and the amenities are some of the best that I have seen from previous apartments I have lived in. I also love the security of the officers that live here and the gated access. My only complaint is that the outside wall facing the stairwell and the ceiling are very thin. We are able to hear everyone who walks by the apartment when laying in bed at night and the upstairs neighbors (who are not so courtesy) play their music VERY loudly until 2 or 3 am almost every night. I know this is not an issue with the apartment itself and more an issue with disrespectful neighbors. I think if we lived in another building with grown-ups above us it wouldn't even be an issue at all. Overall I'm giving 4/5 stars as it is a very nice community and if you are lucky enough to have great neighbors then you will LOVE it here. UPDATE: It has now been 2 more months since my review and I have to say that I have grown more and more tired of this complex. Loud neighbors, 80% of the people are rude, trash everywhere (bottles, bags, food wrapper, ect in bushes and on ground), dog poop everywhere, people screaming and running around past 10pm at night. Our lease is up in June and we can't wait to move out of here. We would not recommend this place at all. It is very pretty to look at in the photos and from the outside but once you live here for some time you find that the "pretty" fades quickly. Update #2: We have been here almost 6 months now and still very unhappy. We were relocated here by my husband's employer and are hoping we can talk them into moving us somewhere else. We are originally from up north and I'm not sure if it is just the norm in the south but there are cockroaches everywhere here. They scurry past your feet on the sidewalks outside (especially by the pool). They are on the stairs outside of the apartment and we have found 4 in our apartment bathroom. I'm guessing they are coming in from the pipes. I have never seen a cockroach in real life until we moved here so I'm not entirely sure how they get around. I can tell you that our apartment is very clean. After we found the first roach about a month after moving in I was on high alert and clean this place spotless in hopes that we never have another one (so far it hasn't helped). Maybe roaches are just a way of life down here and everyone has to learn to deal with them...I don't know...maybe I'm being overly sensitive about it but to me it is extremely gross and makes me feel like I live somewhere that is dirty.
