  • Perfect location. Big apartments.

    August 16, 2024
    it's at a Goldilocks location for going to University of Florida. Within easy scooter distance of class. But not right at a bunch of distraction like 13th. The buildings are ancient. The apartments are huge. Like built for giants huge. Maintenance team is pretty on fleck. Office staff are friendly and helpful.

  • Old and awesome

    March 13, 2024
    The apartments here are as big as houses. The place is older than my Granddad, but they've got it good and patched up with duck tape and stuff. It's location is prime. Close to but not right at UF. Fast and grocery store food right here. A decent public pool right down 34th. There's only 3 apartment buildings on 2nd and 34th. So It's in the middle of Gainesville and a small neighborhood at the same time

  • Across the street from The University of Florida golf course.

    January 20, 2024
    If you've got classes at UF, you're going to need a scooter. You could walk from here. But not really. It can be a tiny electronic scooter. It's close. Just not close enough. Building is old but patched up ok. My apartment is very spacious. I had to buy a bigger tv.

  • Close to UF. Big apartments. Nice neighborhood

    January 7, 2024
    It's not as convenient to UF as Midtown due to not being able to cut through the corner of 34th the way you can at 13th. so it's like a 15 minute extra walk. But I know people who pay more for much smaller places (The apartments here are huge!) further away. There's a park, public pool with diving boards, and a decent movie theater close by. It's a low key area compared to the other side of the college

  • On the opposite side of UF from 13th.

    December 29, 2023
    Old building with big apartments. Like really big. Nothing broken down. There's a Publix, movie theater, restaurants, and some shops a block away. If it was a more modern building, I'd give it 5 stars because the location kinda slaps for my studies.

  • It's alright. A bit off the beaten path.

    December 22, 2023
    I'm pretty happy with my one bedroom. Lots of space for the price. The building is old, but well maintained. The neighborhood is pretty quiet with a small string of shops,restaurants and a Publix a block away. It's on the less trendy side of UF.

  • It's alright. The one bedrooms are huge.

    December 21, 2023
    I signed my lease to live at The Ridge on 34th from Texas. And I was real happy with what I got when I walked into my door. Very spacious living room. There's restaurants and a Publix grocer a block away. (Apparently, there is always a Publix a block away. Everywhere in Gainesville. You'd have to go down University Ave a bit to find nightlife. Much much less criminal sketchy types on this side of UF. Like one at a time maybe. People feel comfortable walking by themselves at night. It's a nice ...
    cozy little bit of right next to the college.

  • DO NOT RENT HERE!

    December 4, 2022
    I have my second student in Gainesville and The Ridge is not where you want to be. We have had nothing but trouble in the first five months of the year. It is under student management and my son had horrible leaks in his apartment from the HVAC system that took forever to fix. Now, they were hit by a truck this weekend and have no power. They are being placed in other "bed space" for exam week. If it was other than student management, I might have faith but it has been a disaster since he ...
    moved in. We will not renew this lease. Signed a Florida parent who knows better and looking for new housing.

  • Very dangerous

    February 22, 2022
    Car got a bullet through the window community does nothing to show they care about the community. The place is run down people idling in the streets.

  • Dangerous environment

    January 3, 2022
    Dimly lit streets. No security cameras. No guard on duty. My car was broken into and there was a shooting where a person was shot in the neck.

  • rent increase continuously!!

    September 7, 2020
    the place is ok, for what one paid before it was fine, but now they pretend that the tenant has to pay for all the renovations they want to do inside the apartment, and they increase the rent at all times, the increase in rent does not justify at all , no improvements are seen at all.
