Alpine Village

1. Small hot water heaters: Not something you would think about, but since you pay for your hot water - you basically get little hot water. Be ready for short showers if you move here. 2. Electric bills: considering it’s cold here, and we pay for all electric here...Our electric bill is averaging around $250 a month in the winter months, and we are cold. We set the heat low around 62 degrees and use a lot of blankets and run the dishwasher about once or twice a week and take 5 minute showers every other day in a one bedroom apartment. We use the stove about once a week. We use 5watt light bulbs to give you a good example of what to expect. I don’t feel like I am using that much electric considering other places I have lived have always come in around $15 to $30 a month for electric. I think it is the heaters they have here and the electric panel seems to need updating. 3. The laundry: while it is cheap. They seem unmaintained. Like you will find a screw in the washer and the washer will look like it is going to bounce away. There are only 6 washers for the entire community and they are average size. 4. I don’t feel the most friendly sense from the leasing office. It is more of a- I am here once a week for a few hours and I don’t handle that, as well as a general rude response. 5. Icy sidewalks all winter that you need to use to your car.
