I have had a fantastic experience renting at this place. Scott and Brian, from day one, they have proven to be incredibly professional, attentive, they respond to texts and emails almost instantly. The buildings and common areas are always clean and well-maintained. read more

Great place to live. The services they provide are excellent and their attitude is always very professional. They also react immediately when maintenance or fixing issues arise. Sometimes the noise coming from gatherings on the adjacent plaza is annoying, but tolerable. One recommendation I can suggest is to clean the hallways more frequently. read more

The City Pointe maintenance service team are the best! Brian and Scott are always quick to respond to my service requests, friendly and professional, and keep the apartment in working order. Also have to shout out Syria in the leasing office for being so professional and helpful. read more

My husband and I have lived here for 1 year and 7 months, and we have truly enjoyed calling this community our home. From the beginning, we have felt welcomed and supported, and a big part of that is because of the wonderful staff. We especially want to recognize Syria, our leasing consultant, for her outstanding dedication and care. Syria is incredibly helpful, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile. She is prompt, professional, and genuinely takes the time to listen and make sure residents feel taken care of. Her positive attitude and kindness make every interaction a great experience, and we truly appreciate all that she does. We also want to thank Brian and Scott for being so attentive and dependable. They are always responsive, friendly, and committed to keeping the community running smoothly. It's clear that the entire team takes pride in their work and cares about the residents. We also love that this is a dog-friendly community. It's wonderful being able to have our furry family member welcomed here.  Overall, we couldn't be happier with our experience. The amazing staff, welcoming atmosphere, and great service have made this a wonderful place to call home. Thank you, Syria, Brian, Scott, and the entire team, for everything you do! read more

Scott (Service Manager) and Brian (Service Technician) really helped to make our year here a pleasure. They promptly responded to all service requests, made accomodations upon request, and followed up via phone calls after any repairs to ensure there were no further issues. 5 star service! Ralph (Community Manager) and Syria (Leasing Consultant) were always friendly and quickly answered any questions during our residence here. Aside from the above, we really enjoyed the extensive gardening and trees throughout the complex, which gives a very peaceful vibe despite the complex being located in busy downtown Fullerton. It has the best of both worlds! read more

Brian and Scott are sooo awesome, we've lived here for years and every maintenance request has been answered quick. I've had minor issues I submitted a work order via the website and expected a next business day response; and within an hour, even on a Sunday Brian shows up. The professional and community relationship is incredible, and is something I've not experienced in my life of apartment living. Thank you! read more

Love living here! It's relatively quiet considering we are in a downtown area and any and every time we have a maintenance issue, Brian comes through and goes above and beyond! read more

The maintenance team here is outstanding. They handle service requests promptly and are always so friendly and approachable. The office team is equally fantastic--always helpful and welcoming. I've been living here for two years, and I couldn't be happier. The staff truly makes a difference. A big thank you to Scott, Brian, Syria, and Ralph! read more

Been living here for 5 years now and sad to be moving out soon but some positive things that stuck out to me was: 1) wonderful location in DTF full of entertainment and food; a farmers market on Thursday's was the cherry on top 2) friendly and responsive staff. Particularly Scott & Brian who are always sooo helpful when it comes to anything that requires maintenance. Scott was very kind to help with my electrical issues and pre move-out inspection. They truly make it feel like we are part of a family at this complex 3) the efficient Amazon hub service 4) newly renovated amenities such as gym, pool, and game room (one that I had many fun memories hosting get togethers at) A few concerns during our time here included lack of security measures in the parking garage during a time where there were a handful of car break-ins but I will say they just installed security cameras (wish it was sooner) so this issue is being rectified. Another thing that could improve is a more efficient recycling system. As of right now there is only one trash chute system. Another concern I had was I was given 2 parking permits (one for my fiancé & I) when I signed the lease for the first time in 2020 and just in the past year 1 permit was revoked just due to policy change. I thought that was quite unfair. I believe all these issues can be addressed/fixed and overall I am very pleased with my stay at City Pointe. We had great memories here. read more

Love the City Pointe team! Everyone, especially Scott, are helpful, kind, and welcoming. Everything you look for in a community and home!

Shoutout to Brian and Scott from the maintenance team for their excellent work! They quickly installed a new washer, fixed a door seal, and took care of a few other repairs around my apartment. Professional, efficient, and always reliable--appreciate their help, best part about the apartments! read more

Me and my fiancé just moved into the city pointe apartments. It was a big change from our last living situation and there was some anxiety. This staff, the apartments and the overall safety and vibe of where we are and who lives here makes a downtown Fullerton experience pretty magical. These apartments feel like an oasis in a really wonderful downtown so it's a win win. read more

City Pointe is a great place to live! My partner and I have been here for coming up on 2 years now. The location in downtown is stellar. Near a bunch of great coffee shops, restaurants, and the farmers market Thursday evenings in the summer is pretty much attached to the building. The staff here is great too! Brian and Scott from the maintenance team are great to work with, and they always take care of requests in a timely and respectful manner. Ralph and Syria on the office staff are also great! Very approachable with any questions / concerns we might have. read more

I really enjoyed living here for the past 4+ years. Service requests are easy to make and are usually done the next day. Scott and Brian are always friendly, helpful and know exactly what to do. Management was also easy to communicate with. read more

Scott was amazing! He was straight to the point on what needed to be done and communicated the time which was very helpful!

Scott and Brian are the very good at what they're doing. Quick response and professional. Thank you.

When we moved in to City Pointe last July, Ralph, the Community Manager, asked us to write a review of our experience. I am always hesitant to write a review too early, so I kept putting it off. The staff (Ralph, Syria, Brian and Scott) are always quick to address any concerns we have had (usually small things) as quickly as possible. Everyone you pass in the hallways greets you. The location is great, with so many local businesses and restaurants to support, along with parks, running trails, the library, schools and more. We face out over the plaza and we love the events that take place - the famer's market, the various pop-up markets, and the bigger festivals. We can sit in our apartment and enjoy the live music from the plaza, along with hearing live music from some of the neighborhood bars. Still I continued to put off writing the review, so I could be honest about all of the negatives too, but we have lived in numerous apartments in over half a dozen states and this apartment complex is proving to be our favorite. One could certainly decide this complex is not for them - the city noise, which we enjoy, can be a bit intrusive at times, so if you need quiet, don't get an apartment facing the plaza. And of course, it would be great if housing were more affordable, but what we pay is market rate for this type of apartment in the area. When it came time to decide whether we were going to renew our lease, there was no hesitation. We truly enjoy living here. Everyone here has made this apartment complex a very comfortable home for us. read more

Scott and Brian are incredibly quick to help and are the best maintenance team in our apartment community.

I have had the best experience over last eight years of living here. Thank you and Brian and Scott for my last service request. You guys handled it quick. What made it even better is which one got here first! lol. Also Syria is always so kind and professional. Thanks again you all. read more

The maintenance crew is really good here. Scott and Brian are both responsive and helpful when things are broken.

Scott was really nice and helped us fix our shower issues in an instant. He came in a got straight to the point he really knows what hes doing read more

Scott and Brian are truly the best, I can say this with ease because I've interacted with them the longest. I have nothing but positive things to say about their service here at City Pointe. They're always willing to help and are amazing at what they do. Ralph and the office team are extremely helpful and great at what they do as well. Ralph has gone above and beyond to help with many things. Truly impeccable service from the entire team. They are all very much appreciated. read more

Aside from the beautiful, spacious apartment, full size washer and dryer inside the apartment and it's awesome amenities, Syria and Ralph (office management) were also the reason why we choose this complex. They provided excellent customer service! City Pointe is conveniently located near many restaurants, coffee shops (which are all walking distance) and a 7 minute drive to CSUF. If you're looking for an apartment for your college student, this place is the spot. read more

Hello Jennifer. Thank you for the reply. What specific enhanced surveillance efforts are you implementing? I also included picture of the screen shot of the 'encounter'. It is on the MyEquity app. I know it sounds like I'm making a big deal out of this but we don't feel safe. It's not just me, it's a constant theme when talking to neighbors. read more

City Pointe is a peaceful environment and provides a resourceful & efficient service!

TLDR: Its okay, expect rent hikes and to lose security deposit. Not worth the rent they charge for reasons out of their control. Me and my girlfriend moved in and stayed a year at City Pointe Apartments and moved out in July. We documented a significant amount of water damage as the cabinets are particle board, and minor paint scratches. We quickly realized any previous damage is just covered up with paint, so some areas have cake layers of paint. The condition of the apartment was fairly dirty when we moved in (see photos) so we cleaned for a few hours after moving in, but overall, it was fine. There is no way around their cleaning fee even though the quality of their cleaning is sub par judging how we received it. With commercial properties, you kind of have to just accept that you will lose your security deposit, this place is no different. We chose to move out for the following reasons: 1) 250$ rent increase on lease renewal when apartments were listed for 150$ cheaper than that for new tenants. 2) The general quality of the cabinets and everything is ridiculously flimsy and cheap. Every cabinet had water damage and was swollen because its all particle board. Think IKEA, looks nice, functions terribly... 3) Fire alarms go off between 1 AM and 4 AM every other month. They are extremely loud and echo in the hallways which makes them deafening. 4) Homeless in the area go through the dumpsters a lot and will have full on screaming matches at 1 AM which woke us up fairly frequently. Calling the police non-emergency line or courtesy patrol does nothing, you have to wait for them to settle down or leave. 5) Break-ins were a frequent problem, even in the gated area. Security is a joke because a catalytic converter was stolen from the gated parking area. 6) Internet instability. I paid spectrum for 200 mb/s, but I rarely ever got it with it frequently dropping to like 15-20 mb/s. Spectrum basically said its an old building with old wiring and increased my speeds on their end so my service speed was closer to what I was paying for. 7) The office sucks at picking up the phone. They communicate by email fine and will talk to you in person, but if you have an emergency just walk to the leasing office. 8) People constantly leave their garbage outside their doors on the 3rd floor. Can't speak for other floors, but its gross and attracts flies. 9) Spills & Trash take forever to be cleaned. When a dog urinates in the elevator, that's cleaned within a day. Dog urine in the elevator is a weekly occurrence. When some misc. wrappers and trash are left in the hallway, it will sit weeks. 9) Live music every Thursday from 5 PM to 9 PM. Not terrible when the bands are good, but the bands are NOT always good. Closing windows doesn't do much to drown out the music. The Pros we liked for living here are below: 1) The maintenance team is the best. Any service requests get finished fast. 2) The farmers market can be nice to shop at. 3) The apartments have ceiling fans and the central AC is strong which makes cooling the unit very easy. 4) Neighbors and residents are friendly and will frequently communicate and try to help people out on the portal. Great sense of community. 5) Plenty of parking for guests if you decide to host. 6) Heart of downtown fullerton location. read more

Been living here since the end of April and I love it ! The gym and lounge areas are always clean. The leasing and maintenance staff are fast and reliable addressing any concerns. There is plenty of parking for guest visiting. The location is excellent next door to the Fullerton Museum with tons of activity to enjoy on the weekends. read more

TLDR: You will not get your deposit back. There is no point in cleaning before moving out because they will say it's not clean. Website/App doesn't function correctly sometimes. Take lots of pictures and screenshots for proof. Manager isn't always available. I have lived here for almost 2 years as of March 29, 2024. I used to think this place was a great place to live in with one of the many amenities City pointe has to offer such as homeless people arguing every morning/night and a car alarm that goes off every morning at the same time. A situation that I run into a lot has to be ordering stuff online and getting it delivered to City Pointe. Packages were never secured. I had a package delivered to the 2nd floor next to the amazon locker and one of our fellow tenants took it. I later saw my package with my customized logo on another person's body. Sadly, City Pointe will not do anything and they will response with a generic response. When it was time to move and terminate my lease early, I contacted Ralph and informed me to terminate it on the MyEquity app/website. I went on the app to terminate my lease on March 28th, 2024. I even got to the end where it showed my termination amount. I should've taken a screenshot, but I didn't and I continued on with my day. I later called that day to ask what I else I needed to do to end my lease. Syria informed me to send an email to Ralph about my lease termination. On April 1st, I checked the app and to my shock, I saw a balance for April's rent. No surprise, I couldn't contact the leasing office for help since it was Monday and the leasing office was closed. I left Ralph an email on April 2nd, and I called to sort this matter out. Ralph wasn't in the office and Syria couldn't really give me a for confident answer. She said she would call me the next day when she received a response. I called the following day since I haven't heard back, and to my surprise, Syria had a response from Ralph. April 4th, 2024, I finally get an email response from Ralph: "As I awaited your online submission of the notice, I would have incorporated a request for the settlement fee to be updated to reflect the statement. As this action was not executed, it is not possible to include a request. You are therefore liable for any further days worked during the month of April, in addition to the settlement fee." I waited three days for a response and now I owe around $300 for the 4 days I did not occupy the unit.(I reference the email as paper trail, but City Pointe will not honor this.) I called the office again and resubmitted my termination, luckily, I was able to reach Ralph and he gladly help me with my process. He explained that when the app or website run into an issue, the IT department will notify them. From my experience using the app, there are so much problem with it, and I do not recommend ever using it. If you want to post or response to a post, the keyboard will cover your message. I recommend using the website to terminate the lease when the time comes. After the inspection, I did not get my security deposit back and owed $73 dollars. Looking back on the pictures City Pointe took, if there are some dust on the thermostats (nest), it is considered dirty. Leaving some items in a drawer is considered dirty. Slightly used is considered dirty no matter how much you clean. I know I'm not the greatest at cleaning, but City Pointe wants the apartment in an unused state in order to get your deposit back. Suggestion I would give this place, please believe tenants and improve the website/app. Please have a manager at the leasing office at all times. read more

If you're looking for an apartment in an lively urban setting, look no further. I've lived at several apartment complexes over the past 12 years, this one is the best I've had the privilege living at. Before I go into the positives, let me address some of the negative reviews: 1. Fire alarms going off in the middle of the night. This literally happens 3-4 times total per year. You're always going to get some moron who thinks it's funny. This can, and does happen, at many other complexes. Period. 2. Not getting most of your security deposit back. Clearly, some people have never lived in apartments before as this is pretty standard at most places (usually places will repaint, have cleaning services come in, regardless, which eats up a large chunk). The security deposit amount is about $800. Every apartment complex I've ever lived at has taken at least some of it. You will find these types of reviews at nearly all complexes. Pro tip: If you're concerned about the deposit, request to do a post move inspection with someone from the leasing office to give you peace of mind. This is common sense. 3. Rent prices will go up after your lease ends. Again, this is an industry standard. Only exception being low income apartments, small privately owned, and even those go up. Furthermore, they are currently remodeling all of the units as people move out. That costs a lot of money. Not to mention, you should expect to pay more living in an upgraded, nicer complex. Pro tip: When you renew your lease, the price is usually negotiable (depending on demand). This goes for any complex. Lock in a longer leasing term. Negotiate. 4. Farmers market and sketchy people. You live in a downtown, urban area. The one thing I will admit that I don't like is the Farmers market every Thursday from April- October. 5:30pm-8:30pm. I've lived in a unit facing the market for two years. Not a huge deal, i just turned the TV up a little louder for a few hours. Pro tip: if the sound from the market is going to bother you that much, ask for a unit that is not facing south.You do get people that like to hang out in the public square behind the complex on occasion (where they host the farmers market). I've never had an issue. It is expected living in a very urban area. Now that I've hopefully laid some of the common worries I've spotted in the reviews to rest, let's get to why this place is AWESOME! The location cannot be beat! Period. You are right where all the action is. Very fun location. Many other reviews speak to this. The units have recently been remodeled. Quartz countertops, hardwood floors throughout (on 2nd floor), stainless steel appliances. Very nicely done. Washer and dryer in unit! You get what you pay for. They have an Amazon Hub on site! Pick up packages from the Amazon hub locker located on the second floor. Parking underground via security gate. It's clean. I've been here for over two years and I've never had an issue. No roaches or rodents to worry about. You will see an occasional dead water bug in the corridors. It's dead because they spray the property. Very few though. This is a HUGE plus for me. The staff service has been impeccable. Fiorella and Shawn are always helpful, and the maintenance staff is very quick to respond. A snapshot of who lives here: Very diverse. Lots of students with wealthy parents. Although this place is a stonesthrow away from a lot of action, and next to Fullerton College, this is not a college party complex. Moreover, there are actually quite a few families with children that reside here. At the end of the day, their is no such thing as a perfect apartment complex. The pros of living here far outway any negatives. I loved living here (only recently relocated for work). read more

Poor management. Tenants & Fullerton PD do the managing. Scott is very rude & disrespectful if called upon after hours for a maintenance emergency. Inside of the apartment is designed to make you pay when you move out because everything is white or beige, including the carpet, which makes it harder to keep clean even over a period of time. Poorly built for apartment living because every single bump is heard by your neighbor beneath & above you. Wind tunnels inside the apartment, so when you open one door, another one slams. Poorly maintained at street level with all the dirtiness and transient activity. So glad to have gotten away from this place although they made me pay extra with their made up BS. Worse apartment experience I've ever had... read more

Great place to live. My apartment was completely remodeled before moving in so it has a great modern feel to it. I absolutely love the layout plans here compared to some other funky ones we saw. Our 1 bedroom is super spacious, about 900 square feet with a 2 sink bathroom and even a little nook for an office! + an app controlled nest! The pool and jacuzzi are cleanly, and the gym has everything you might need for a simple workout sesh. My favorite part though is that there is a ton of tropical plants and greenery so it makes the views much better! The location is great, and starbucks / acai shops are right underneath you, can't really get better than that. read more
