I've lived in 3 separate apartments in Sterling Oaks. Love the place. Management has always been awesome regardless of who it has been! It's a great community and Hignell and the Sterling Oaks teams has done a great job to do events for the community. Great variety of working class/professionals, retirees, students. Every community is going to have those that don't like to play by the rules but regardless of the negative reviews, the management has acted professionally in every instance I've heard of (never had any issues myself in the 6ish years I've lived here). There's no place like it in Chico! Amazing area of Chico as well. Large garages for rent as well. Bike path to upper park, creek, Cal Park lake across the street. Great place!
