The absolute only reason I am giving this a rating of 5 and why i am even still living there is because of the current manager Stephanie... She has done everything in her power to make Kenwood a safe clean and happy livable home for me and my family. Some of the tenants however do not care about how clean they live and throw garbage everywhere. Not all of them are disgusting but the ones that are make sure they over power people like myself and Stephanie whom are trying to makr Kenwood a better and cleaner place to live. So all i can say to new interested tenants is that our Manager Stephanie is doing everything she can to make this place look and feel great and she has the dedication to make it just that... It can only get better from here.
