I enjoy living here. It's clean, convenient, and quiet 99.9% of the time. No smoking of ANY kind allowed! And when someone is caught, they are kicked out immediately! I've seen it happen to folks too many times. They also have periodic inspections if they find tenants are not taking care of their place (like if there are bugs, they investigate to see where, or from where those bugs are coming from). So hoarding or having a nasty place will be found out. It's easy living though. And people for the most part respect each other.
