Northgate/Southgate Apartments

for things that weren't even broken after we signed all the disclosures and sent a bill a month after we left. Find another apartment please! I ended up investing in a house on my own and my mortgage is actually cheaper!! Explore your options, this is no one of them.

snow removal so the lots and walks are safe for all of your residents!!!

speak of the laundry 'cause there's no way i'd put my clothes in the basement machines (one washer and dryer per building). Storage doors are pad-lockable, but the door is about the size of a bathroom stall door with a huge gap above and below. Basements flood and stink like mildew. Did i mention the noise? Seriously, if you're into peace and quiet on occasion, it's going to be on a very rare occasion. And they've gotten more rare since the low rents are attracting young folks who like to party. No problem with the kids, I partied too, but that's not what I was hoping to deal with when I came here. Time to go. Hope this helps anybody who's on the fence about the place. One last thing, snow/ice removal is a joke. And because a lot of people here don't ever work or go anywhere, there are always a number of unmoved cars in the lot that hinder the plows when they do come. Did I mention the noise?

keys look like prison keys that have been in circulation for 50yrs). It's obvious that ownership is looking to turn as much of a profit as possible here, so as long as they're getting their rent checks or state assistance vouchers, all is well. Location is decent, but the community itself is pretty ragged and attracts folks that are ok putting up with it. Office and maintenance staff seem nice and trustworthy enough, but lets be honest, their hands are tied. They can only work with the tools they're given. Quality of amenities is laughable. Free heat&hot water is nice, but also totally necessary considering old, drafty construction. There are a/c units, but they are wall units that are as loud as car engines. The fridges are one step up from a dorm fridge. In my block of 8 apts (four 2br, four 1br) there is one old washer and one old dryer in the basement. Your storage units will also be in the basement and if you don't grab some pallets to raise your stuff above flood stage, it will get very wet. I've seen as much as 2" of standing water in my basement after a big rainfall. Soundproofing (and smell-proofing) is nonexistent. You will hear folks using the basement and laundry (at all hours). Your neighbors business will be your business. And to speak to the "smell-proofing" part, there is actually a section of the lease agreement that forbids tenants from cooking with "curry or curry oil". I know curry can stain, but so can mustard and tomato sauce. So i wonder how many smell complaints it took to get that bit in the lease. And because there is one dumpster and one recycle bin to service the entire property, and because people are too lazy to take a little walk, their trash has a tendency to pile up at their doors and on their patios until such time as they feel it's worth their time to throw it out (and then they drive it down there). Everything here is 100% true. I can only speak for my own experience, but using that as a guide I can say that it's likely any positive reviews you see about this place are either scripted or misplaced Northgate reviews.

size, big enough for a patio set.
