caveat 12 reviews mention this

Cleanliness and bug problems

Multiple residents describe the apartments and grounds as dirty and pest-prone.

Residents frequently mention dirty conditions, including dirty interiors and unpleasant odors. Several reviews also call out bugs and even bed bugs, alongside concerns about the overall upkeep.

A recurring theme is criminal activity, with reviews mentioning shootings, burglaries, drugs, and people behaving dangerously.

Maintenance delays and clogged units

Affordability and Section 8

Affordability is a frequent point of discussion, including for Section 8.

Some reviews describe the apartments as affordable and as a place to start out until residents can move on. Section 8 comes up directly in multiple comments, including one that says it feels like a scam to use Section 8 as an option. Overall, affordability is a clear theme, but eligibility and application experience are also a source of frustration for some people.
