Affordable living, gated community. The courtyard is maintained well. Also, community gas bbq's you can use that are also well taken of. Storage and a parking garage. I was highly impressed and recommend looking into this place. Also, I received back 80% of my damage and pet deposit. Finally, it's located in a nice neighborhood.
