Renters Reviews and Ratings
JUST AWFUL
July 21, 2023The walls are PAPER thin, you can hear every word your neighbors say. When someone orders a package it is just thrown in front of the mailboxes anyone could steal them. There has been an outrageous about of car break-ins. Not the place to live if you want it to be peaceful. Lastly, there is no on-site leasing office, even though they advertise one.Property Manager Responded
July 24, 2023Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced, including the thin walls and the lack of a secure package delivery. We would love to personally connect to discuss your experience further. We understand that these issues have impacted your experience, and we appreciate you bringing them to our attention. -Essex Resident Services Team
