How consistent is the rating

Fairly consistent±0.4

Its rating has stayed within about ±0.4★ of its average over time, month to month.

Measured from the rating weighted by how many reviews back each month, so a single review can't swing it. Sourced, not scored.

Every review over time

All 30 reviews by rating, back to Dec 2024. Bands of orange show when low ratings clustered. (Older dates are approximate.)

How the rating mix shifted over time

Share of each star rating by year, normalized to 100% — so a growing orange band means a rising share of low reviews, whatever the volume. (Older years are approximate.)

5★4★3★2★1★

Rating trend, two ways

Mean (solid) vs median (dashed) by year — a gap means opinion split that year.

    MaintenanceCleanliness

    I have been living here for one year with no intention of moving. I have lived at many different properties in different States and never had a better property management team. The pictures that I have added show EXACTLY what I moved into. The house cleaning team does a wonderful job taking care of the property with no ugly odors like other properties have. If maintenance is needed, they are scheduled according to my request and do not enter unless I have authorized it. Another pleasant point is the respect that I have been given by management and residents as a Service Missionary. If you are looking for a peaceful place to live, I invite you. If you have no respect for the place that you live, this is not the place for you. The only thing bad thing that I have found is that Yelp reports terraces and we don't have any.

    Safety

    Thank you to Angelia and the other staff for helping me with my application and for keeping me updated throughout the process of getting moved in. Angelia has been especially helpful—her patience and consistent communication really eased a lot of my stress and uncertainty about the move-in date. She went above and beyond, and that made all the difference. The communication overall has been a positive experience and has helped me feel a bit safer, especially given the area.

    Management responded

    Thank for your amazing review! We're so glad you had such a positive experience and we our best to make every interaction the same!! We're glad to have you living with us!

    SafetyPets & policy

    I think that the managers and the property is beautiful and I think that they care about their residents and care about the property cause of they didn't they would not ask the residents every month in the monthly notice that's left on our doors to help keep the property as nice as possible. Plus they have helped me with the situations I've had personally every time and has made it a point to let me know about my phone not working or then not being able to get a hold of me and also has changed the locks on my doors twice now and has been very professional when it comes to me letting them know about my identity theft and has been very patient with my issues at hand and has helped me with all my needs that are necessary for me to live in my apartment and I'm so thankful that they have given me the chance to rent my very first apartment and if I made more money or had more money I would be paying way more than just the project based housing, but either way I'm thankful that they have let me move in to one of their one bedroom apartments and allows me to pay my rent and allows me to have my Emotional Support Animal(s) live with me in my apartment. Thank you Laura and Ashley and I believe her name is Nichole. If I'm wrong I apologize but thanks to all of the people who had a hand in creating a beautiful home for me and the others even if they do complain they should be thankful to have a fully furnished apartment with washer and dryer and all the necessities that we need to live. Thanks again.
