Columbia has long been recognized as a great place to live the good life. Case in point: Money Magazine named Columbia the #1 place to live in 2016, not just in Maryland, but in the entire country. And for good reason. Columbia comprises 10 villages that are home to diverse businesses, vibrant economies, some of the nation’s best schools, and an idyllic location that’s close enough – and far enough – from the hustle in Baltimore and DC. Enter AutumnColumbia, a gem of an apartment community located in the heart of King’s Contrivance Village. Here, you’re awesomely close to huge employment hubs just off of I-95, great shopping, dining, and, of course, the aforementioned award-winning schools. From Starbucks runs to your morning commute, getting around town is easy from Autumn Columbia. It’s the best of connected living. The great location is just the start. Our apartment homes are planned to get the royal treatment with a full-scale renovation including newly redesigned kitchens, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, new lighting and fixtures, and vinyl wood flooring in select homes. Finishes are designed to be on par with brand-new luxury apartments on the inside, where they count. The amenities are planned to get the once-over, too, with an updated clubhouse offering hang-out-worthy spaces, free wi-fi, and coffee bar. Telecommuters rejoice – this is some great work-from-home space. The pool area is always the heart of any community, so we’re giving it some serious love with new lounging.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at Autumn Columbia
The maintenance team has been top notch, but issues persists around pests, a lot of fleas in and around the property! They do try to curb it but it comes back!
Horrible maintenance. It’s been 3 months and the dimmer switch on the ceiling fan has not been replaced. I submitted. 3 maintenance requests. Still not finished. You guys think I am stupid by replacing the dimmer switch with a regular light switch. The other residents should not accept such incompetence.
Its a quiet neighborhood and community. Nice apartment complex with good amenities and. good staff.Would recommend to people as well!
I love coming home to peace and quiet. Everyone I’ve met have been pleasant. It’s really a pleasure living here.when I moved in a couple of neighbors asked if I needed help. Great place to live!
I would leave negative stars if possible. Was given a prorated amount for moving out on a specified date by TWO DIFFERENT employees in the office. Went to turn in the keys and was told those employees were incorrect and instead of $175 the monies owed are $1500+. To add insult to injury my spouse is currently deployed, I literally feel taken advantage of.
