    • Charming Community + 5 Star Management

      March 16, 2021
      The Block community offers a unique boutique experience. From our initial communications through move-in living here has been amazing. The apartment itself has incredible finishes and the management is 5 star. I appreciate the personal touch, it certainly doesn’t feel like any other apartment I’ve lived in. Thank you to Mike, Vicky, Lynn and Mowgli for all you do!

    The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on scale of 1 (below average) and to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider needs as part of the school selection process.
