  • CAN HEAR EVERYTHING

    July 8, 2024
    Gorgeous place and nice appliances but can hear my neighbors next door AND upstairs neighbors and downstairs neighbors despite the high ceilings.
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Horrible place to live

    April 18, 2024
    The owner of the building treats you like a peasant. I’ve been personally insulted by him many of times while living at the Paper Factory… It’s also odd how unprofessional he is… Also.. ROACHES. I’ve seen them too many times to count. This space is also extremely loud. You can hear quite literally everything that goes on in the building. A lot of tenants like to have parties too, so good luck sleeping.

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.
