As one of the major economic centers of Alabama and one of the signature cities of the Southeast, Birmingham has done an impressive job of adapting to the new demands of the 21st century. The city that once built a reputation as the “Pittsburgh of the South” thanks to a robust steel manufacturing industry is now a hip community attracting entrepreneurs, artists, and innovative personalities. Birmingham remains one of the most active business hubs in the region, with headquarters for everything from banks to biotech firms operating in the city.
The dining, nightlife, and entertainment scenes have all grown rapidly in recent years, and just about everyone in town has an opinion about where to find the best brewery. Gorgeously preserved historic buildings and a pervasive attitude of down-home hospitality have kept Birmingham’s famous southern charm intact as well, creating a unique environment where the best elements of the traditional and the modern complement each other.

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 Bluffs at Riverview
While living at the property, we had numerous issues, all of which would take weeks to resolve or simply would not be fixed all together. The toilets in both of the bedrooms would constantly clog no matter what we did to prevent it happening. The water pressure was terrible and we had multiple issues with fire alarms going off in the middle of the night. The gate is almost always broken and will stay broken for a period of time. One of the reasons we moved there was for the restricted access, but it almost always broken/open. Multiple car, break-ins and notices from the management, telling us it had happened. The management is awful and a major reason why we moved out.
I love this community just off the beaten path right in the heart of 280. Amazing office team, very responsive and always helpful. You can't be the floorplans huge closets, exterior storage.
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for your kind words. We do love that we're \"off the beaten path\" and so close to everything.
The Bluffs at Riverview advertise the apartments as "Luxury Apartments" and charge as if they are. However, the apartments are NOT MAINTAINED like luxury apartments. A standard maintenance request for something as simple and common as a leaking faucet is currently taking weeks to solve. The maintenance guy took a quick look, decided he didn't want to bother fixing it, so declared he would order us a new one. It's been several weeks and we haven't heard back. When followed up about it, we were simply told "We've got one on order." Really? Like isn't that about the most common repair in the world? You don't have any on hand? Ever? Some amenities that are advertised and charged handsomely for are not available. For instance, the car wash station has been available about 2-3 weeks over the last 10 months. There's a water problem. A water problem that they've know about for almost a year. The water problem remains, with apparently nothing done about it. It is supposed to be a "gated community." However, the front gate hasn't been able to close for about a month now. This happens regularly. The key-card access to the clubhouse gym stopped working for several months, during winter no less, meaning that the gym was unavailable to normal 9-5 workers for several months. Turnover among staff has been horrendous. That includes both office staff and maintenance staff. For some reason, the good ones get run off (or perhaps keep finding a "better situation"). This sort of staff turnover suggests that the upper management/owners are not good people to work for. I could go on with similar examples, but you get the point. They charge premium prices, but do not provide a premium product/service. Buyer beware!
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
We are truly sorry to hear you are having issues and would love you to call our office and speak to the management direclty. We agree that the amenities need to be working and are so incredibly sorry for the inconvenience. Our gate company gets the parts as quickly as they can and we follow up daily if anything goes wrong with the access system. We have spoken to other gate companies to try to get the repairs done more quickly but they all agree, it does take time to get the parts and that is very unfortunate. We have also spoken to other apartment community managers to see if we can find another gate company that could possibly get the parts quicker, but they say they are also having the same issues. The car wash is working properly and again, we repair these issues as quickly as we possibly can. Please call us directly and let us know what issues you are currenly having so we can make sure they get addressed right away. We look forward to hearing from you
This complex is great. It is quiet and well maintained. The staff is helpful and Ceanna is great! Any maintenance requests have been answered quickly and repaired right away and fixed properly.

Hi there, thank you so much for your positive comments about The Bluffs at Riverview!
Total racket. It doesn't say it in the lease agreement but if you break your lease early they automatically keep your security deposit, no matter the condition of your apartment at move-out. Management admits they keep everyone's deposit if they break the lease.
The staff is super friendly and helpful. Very quick with service requests and anything else you need. The property and common spaces are kept very clean. I love living here!
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for positive feedback! We try hard to ensure the happiness of our residents!
I only been here for almost 2 months and I really like it here it's nice and quiet everybody is friendly staff is very friendly so far everything I asked for they have met money
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Hi Keke! Thank you for your awesome review! We think the Bluffs is fantastic and so happy that you are enjoying the community so far!
I would not recommend this property or any property that is under DEL Development. I had to pay an upfront deposit and due to a job change I am not able to move to this complex because I am moving to another state. I have been denied the 250.00 refund of the deposit and been treated extremely poorly by the regional manager, Gaby and Kaitlynn. Please stay far away from this complex as I have found they are not honest and lack any type of concern or compassion for people.
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Hello Mr. Kennedy. I apologize that we have fallen short of your expectations.

My wife and I lived at The Bluffs for 3 years and recently moved to buy a home!!
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Hi, we're so glad that we were able to go above and beyond your expectations!
I loved living at The Bluffs! I stayed at the community for right around 2 years. The amenities are amazing especially the swimming pool. Its a fun place to live and you are right near good restaurants and places to go shopping. I would recommend this place!
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Hi, we are very happy we could provide you with a positive experience!
Be very careful with this apartment complex. They will charge you for items that were already damaged in the apartment. The AC/Heat is marginal and can take hours to change several degrees. This is a common complaint with almost all tenants.
Property Manager at Bluffs at Riverview, Responded To This Review
Hello, Please contact the leasing office at your convenience so that we can clear up any misunderstanding on your move-out statement if you have already vacated the apartment. All damage charges are documented with pictures and we will be happy to provide you with any pictures or additional clarification. Of course, if there are any errors, we would love to opportunity to clear those up. If you are a current resident and having issues with your heating/air, please contact the office as soon as possible and we will make all necessary repairs on your system. As a reminder, we do have an emergency maintenance line for after-hour maintenance emergencies, including heating and cooling issues. We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
