Overall Review of The Ponds at the Village
caveat11 reviews mention this
Pests and roach problems are recurring
Several residents describe persistent mice and roach infestations.
Many reviewers report seeing roaches and mice in and around their units, including accounts of traps going off repeatedly and roaches in living spaces. Some describe pests even after they try to keep the home spotless, while others mention additional issues tied to infestations. A small number of comments say their home was clean and had no mice or roaches, but negative pest reports are the dominant thread.

Some reviewers report long stretches without heat and hot water, along with frustration that maintenance did not respond appropriately.

A few comments also point to maintenance helping with specific issues, while separate reviews say maintenance did not come when something broke.
