    Don't bother buying premium parking... I've had many people park in my spot and neither does…read moresecurity or parking answer their phone(s). Feel free to park wherever.., absolutely not worth the hefty price.

    On the plus side, the location is convenient to the University. they bill students individually…read more Overall, this seems like a fun experience for the students who live here. The rent is a little steep, but that's just to be expected for apartments near a college campus. That's not just here, that's anywhere. Folks complain about the furnishings and quality of construction, but honestly, you have to expect this when you rent one of these "rent by the bedroom" close to campus apartments. On the negative side: security here is lax or non-existent. Residents are robbed in the parking lot. After an armed robbery, the cops showed up, but security never did. Never. So, take their claims of 24 hour security with a grain of salt. Make sure your student knows that this may be a legal issue if they're harmed by Edge's negligence, here. The security company shows up if and when they feel like it. You stand a good chance of being mugged or worse if they don't feel like working that night. After a series of muggings, they sent out the attached letter. Basically telling residents to be extra careful. What was missing was something to the effect of "we've spoken to the security company and they won't be blowing us off in in the near future." Now? They're sending out notices to people saying they're late with rent. In our case, we're actually paid ahead. But we're still getting e-mails that say things like: "We are sending a third friendly reminder that April rent has been posted to your resident portal account, and you currently have a balance of (an amount that shows that they owe money to us.)" "*This email was sent because you have an outstanding balance on your account. Please work to pay it asap or contact the office if you believe there is a mistake on your account." If you call the office, they'll just tell you that this is a mass e-mail. Pointing out to them that "...was sent because you have an outstanding balance on your account" doesn't seem to make an impression. Either the staff was told that management knows and doesn't care, or staff doesn't feel empowered to push these issues up the chain. I feel bad for the staff. They're probably students. But the lack of attention from management is alarming, and the staff probably doesn't feel they can push these issues up so they can get resolved. All in all, people like living here. It's convenient and fun. The residents are basically all students. Just realize that the management of this property cares about as much as management of this type of apartment usually care. The apartment complex is dangerous. Security really isn't there if they don't feel like it. You will get hounded with e-mail after e-mail demanding rent after your rent is paid. Their accounting and IT functions seem wholly incompetent. If they stick you with late charges after you've already paid your rent, realize that the calls you make are going to be to people who can't help you. If they mess you up too bad, call campus legal. Is this similar to other campus rip-off apartments? Unfortunately, yes. The owners are off in some other state. They don't care about the residents that much because there's always an inflow of new residents. So, you take the good with the bad. It's not the wrong decision to live here. You just need to be aware that there are downsides. Personally, I think your choice is to either suffer with the downsides, or move to a complex a mile away where you'll get a much larger apartment for much lower rent. But then, you're not right next to campus, living with mostly students. The aggravating part is that it shouldn't be that hard to have security on premises. It's needed in this neighborhood. And it shouldn't be that hard NOT to hassle people who have already paid their rent. By the way, take a peek at the "not currently recommended" reviews. I think this complex's rating would be lower if those were factored in.
