Meadowlark Apartments is a great place to live, the neighbors are friendly, Tanya the manager is very nice, and they are pet friendly for our kitty. The units are nice and well kept, air conditioner, roomy closet, pest free. It's gated and is conveniently located steps away from the mall, grocery stores and restaurants. Couldn't ask for more.
