Located beyond the city limits of Baton Rouge, Airline/Jefferson mixes business parks, single-family subdivisions and ample shopping areas to provide residents with opportunities to support nearly any desired suburban lifestyle. Set on old plantation land, some of which lingers, crossed by several creeks, bayous and small lakes, the area caters to a slower pace of life while retaining the advantages of living on the fringes of a large city. Central Baton Rouge lies about 10 miles northwest.

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 CITISCAPE AT ESSEN
These apartments are exceptionally small and outdated for the amount of money that is being requested. The pool is rarely clean…normally dingy brownish green water. Large amounts of poop is all over grounds. An abundance of large flies because of the dog poop. The 3 bedroom apartments are very tiny. The main bedroom is barely big enough for an adult. The closet is smaller than a coat closet. The other two remaining closets are walk in closets and a decent size bathroom. The main bathroom has an extremely small bathroom. There is a pungent odor that lingers and probably because residents are forced to have trash cans outside their door. There’s barely any grass is many areas due to management not taking care of the landscaping by planting more grass. There is not adequate parking and the punish the residents by enforcing $200 tickets/boots on your cars. It’s difficult to have guests because of the inadequate parking. The owners choose to build almost 100 new units yet didn’t care to amend their parking. There are soooooo many nicer apartments with far more amenities and better management that actually care about their residents. The best part is the location. You are in close proximity to everything and it’s somewhat safe. Seriously, these are over priced for what is being offered. I moved to a far better location!!!!!! If you’re a medical personnel, they are okay for location but honestly, LOOK around for better. These are small, outdated, over priced, no closet space, dog poop throughout the grounds and sometimes on the sidewalk. They don’t spray in your unit and due to the trash being outside your door, you may experience rodents…such as possums and raccoons.
It would be nice to see security making rounds occasionally, the office staff is on point , the amenities are as advertised, the friendliest maintenance crew ever .

While I love the location, amenities, and safety provided by Citiscape, the price it is not worth it for the condition of the apartment. My apartment has smelled of rotting laundry since day one. There has been no resolution after several service tickets. Repairs done after the previous lessee are also obvious and wanting. Plastered holes that havent been painted over, and half measures to repair drawer faces with mis-sized screws. Parking is also often unavailable near my apartment building.

From the moment I first toured, I felt welcome and considered. I've truly enjoyed living here. The staff is helpful, kind, and responsive. I love the different events hosted here, like the block party and the sidewalk chalk event. I feel that, as a resident, I am very much kept in the loop regarding anything going on at the complex. I've always felt respected and valued while living here.

We struggled with A/C problems in our last 2 apartments over 2 years at citiscape and even had the pipes busted in our ceiling in the last apartment that had our entire ceiling soaking wet;fire alarm going off in the middle of the night. However, maintenance was extremely prompt on our last service request and fixed the problem in one visit.

As a medical resident working at OLOL Hospital, I believe the convenience of having a nice apartment complex very close to work cannot be overstated. The amount of time saved not having to deal with Baton Rouge traffic is significant. Maybe most important of all is that I truly do feel like I'm far away from work when I'm in my apartment.

Office staff are nice enough, but the construction starting at 7am and the maintenence requests not being completed in a timely manner cause me to hesitate to recommend this apartment complex.

I have lived here for a year and highly enjoy the community, especially the new amenities. I am close to everything, but feel safe being tucked far away. I have had a few issues, but the office takes my request and they are completed pretty quick. I want them to complete the new dog park as I do have a pet otherwise I do really like it here.
Property Manager at CITISCAPE AT ESSEN, Responded To This Review
Thank you for your kind comments. We love seeing you around using the amenities and can't wait for the new dog park to open! Also watch for information on our Halloween party coming in late October! We hope to see you then! Best Regards, Mary Nehlig
I stayed here for a year and did not enjoy my tim at all. For the first 6 months the construction kept me awake for months and none of the amenities were available. The staff in the office is rude and if you’re someone young 21-25 looking for people around your age then don’t move here. Currently counting down the days until I move out of here. Recently a memeber of the staff came outside and yelled at my roommate for standing outside talking. Just terrible.
