Ive lived here almost 2 years now. Everytime i have had any issues its addressed swiftly and within a day. The neighborhood is not loud. Kids play outside with no problems. I see someone said they had roaches. I have not. I have not seen any either. But i also took time to pull everything out and really deep clean before moving in. Im in construction so i look for all that and more. I have yet to see anything alarming that would run me out. For the location and price its worth it
