Indian Acres is a friendly, delightful community that sits about four miles northeast of downtown Albuquerque. The weather is mild to hot and sunny nearly year round, and the surrounding landscape is a mix of urban, suburban, and developed desert. Cars abound, although Indian Acres is very flat, so it's both bikeable and walkable. Local buses are a good alternative for those looking for public transportation.
Downtown Albuquerque is also the main rail and transit hub for all of New Mexico. Homes for rent in Indian Acres are 11 minutes from Greyhound, Amtrak, and local surface lines, such as the Rio Metro Bus Service. The Grower's Market, also situated downtown and running between April and November, is where most locals go for local produce, groceries, live music, yoga, and doses of community spirit. City-sponsored softball is a huge plus for sports fans.
Indian Acres has a distinct family atmosphere but welcomes everyone.

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.

The staff was very helpful and made the process super easy. Nice apartment complex even though it was built in the 70s. It was an overall great experience.

Move in was easy and fast, molly in the front office was really nice and made the experience awesome for us, our kids love their spacious rooms and can't wait to get in the pool now that it's open.

Hi, your wonderful feedback and rating mean a lot to us. We're so happy your experience went Beyond Expectations. Let us know if there's anything else we can do!
The apartments are roomy, but there's no type of ventilation through out the apartment..3bd that is. We have no air conditioning, what so ever, IDK what company does the "chiller system" but if you don't like to be sticky from your own sweat and any due to irritating hot temperatures inside of your home, I suggest you look at other places. These apartments are old with lipstick to appear nice. My kitchen looks like it's about to cave in on the tenants underneath me my entire kitchen dips in. It looks like the sink stove washing machine and fridge are all about to meet in the middle bcuz the floors are so damaged. And the ?? OMG, ugh I hate bugs and ugh I'm going freaking insane because they are coming from the chiller system, a non effective and cheap excuse for air conditioning, that runs thru my entire apartment,

Hi there, we appreciate your honest feedback, as we are always looking for ways to improve. We regret that you weren't satisfied with your experience. We hope you will give us another chance. Please call us at (505) 884-3752 so we can work towards a solution. Thank you and have a great day.
Location is good, but nothing else is. Frequent water leaks require water to the entire property to be shut off (4 times just this month) for repairs , yet they charge extra for water per month.. The security gates often fail to close (the main entrance gate has been open for the past week). There are only 3 maintenance staff, although this is a large, 50-year-old property. Trash containers often overflow before being emptied, causing a problem on windy days. Heat to the property was turned off in mid-April, after which there were many days when temperatures at night dropped into the 40s but no heat provided.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review
Hello Peter, Thank you for sharing your concerns. Unfortunately, in order to complete necessary repairs and maintain the plumbing system for all residents, water shut-offs are sometimes unavoidable. We understand this is frustrating and do our best to keep disruptions as brief as possible. Regarding the security gate, we’ve reviewed the situation and confirmed that it is closing at night. Our maintenance team is working hard within the limitations they face, and we truly appreciate their efforts. In response to the trash concerns, we have increased pick-up to three times a week to help prevent overflow. We appreciate your feedback and patience as we continue working to improve the living experience for all residents

Hi there! Thanks so much for letting us know about your experience with Desert Creek Apartments. At Desert Creek Apartments, it's our pleasure to serve. Hope we can be off assistance to you in the future! Best wishes from Desert Creek Apartments.
I've worked very hard to resolve the issues.One was the doors not being secured and vignorance frequently visiting our apartment complex. It took three years to get the doors fixed and three years to get a new security team hired. I've worked very hard with the community and the fire department and APD.It is to get rid of the vagrants that live behind the building. All it took was a couple of calls.And they have currently kicked them out.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review

We completely understand the frustration regarding the ongoing homelessness challenges in the Albuquerque area, and we want you to know that we take your feedback seriously. At Desert Creek, we are actively working to address this issue by keeping our access points secure and increasing security presence on the property. While this is a city-wide problem that affects many neighborhoods, we remain committed to doing everything within our control to keep our community safe and comfortable.

There are countless issues with these apartments. Constant water issues. You won't have hot water for days, sometimes you have no water at all, do to the constant water shut offs. Homeless people everywhere. Your car is not safe here, neither from break-ins nor from the predatory people they have patrolling the apartments. They can boot your vehicle at whim and you have no recourse of action. Either pay the fee or get towed. They act like they own the place and the apartment manager lets them because they get a kickback from the fees. The buildings are falling apart, it feels like you are going to fall through the floor. Even my tiny little self feels like I'm going to crash into the apartment below me. The maintenance is terrible, nothing gets fixed. Do yourself a favor and live under a bridge, you will have better amenities and service than you will get here.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review
We are truly sorry to hear about your less-than-excellent experience and appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the hot water issue. We did our best to communicate clearly with residents and offer assistance during this challenging time. Regarding the recent car break-ins, we understand how frustrating and upsetting this can be. While preventing theft can be difficult, we continue to work hard to counteract these problems. Our parking services patrol the property regularly, and as outlined in the lease agreement, vehicles that are found with expired registration or without a visible parking permit are subject to being booted or towed. Please know that management does not receive any kickbacks from this service. Additionally, we have not had any instances where a resident has fallen through their ceiling. However, if you feel there may be an issue in your apartment, please reach out to us directly, and we will be happy to look into it and address any concerns.Thank you for your understanding, and we are here to help with any further issues you may have.

We actually like living here. However, rent keeps going up, we don't get up to date calls on our issues and there's always trouble with the water. There's a lot of people becoming homeless due to the rent going up every year. We're blessed to have a place to live for now.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. After reviewing our records, we do not see any outstanding work orders for your apartment. However, we would like to resolve this issue promptly. Please feel free to contact us directly at (505) 884-3752 at your earliest convenience, so we can address any concerns and work toward a solution. We look forward to hearing from you.
The apartment wasn’t really ready to be leased. This is my third week living here, and every single day, I’ve had to go to the office to request maintenance for something in my unit. I had a water leak in my bathroom sink, which prevented me from using the tap for 4 days. It took multiple requests before they finally sent someone to fix it. There are cockroaches in the apartment, and despite weekly pest control visits, the problem persists. Now, for almost two weeks, the entire complex has been without hot water. I’m beyond tired and incredibly frustrated at this point. It seems the management is neither responsible nor attentive to their tenants’ needs.

Desert Creek is a timeless apartment complex that has been in Albuquerque since the 1970's. The apartments are being upgraded with new carpet, paint, and flooring all the time as people are moving in and out. They are spacious for the price. Honestly, I love my apartment, management, and maintenance team. Oh yeah, the location is great too!!!

We love our new apartment so much bigger then our last apartment. My son loves the carpet loves to run around and has his own room. We like how pest control comes more often and the office ladies are very helpful and polite. Only thing I'd say needs working is maintenance with fixing issues inside the apartments.

Hi there - thanks for your lovely comments about our office staff. We'll be sure to let them know they went Beyond Expectations! Thank you for the feedback regarding our maintenance team as we are always looking for ways to improve.
I'm disappointed in Desert Creek as a resident here that there is a cockroach infestation issue, heating/cooling issue/water shut off issue/water heating and cooling issues - the list feels ongoing with a new thing that pops up every couple of weeks. The maintenance team doesn't communicate what they have done when something is fixed in the apartment. They do not maintain a clean work area after they have "completed" their work in the apartment. Nothing is every truly "fixed."

Desert Creek has been very helpful, informative, clear and concise with information and resources available to the renter. Everything necessary for moving in was perfectly crystal clear and very defined. No hidden messages or back fees. They also let me know if any updates going on with the apartment, and helped me get lower rates for my apartment before I moved in, giving me an incredible price per month for my place.

I’m happy with desert creek. It’s been a great experience so far. I wished the spa was open but other than that I have had no problems. I have had a few repairs here and there but they have sent out work orders and got someone here in a timely manner

No hot water, cockroach infestation with cockroaches in our bed when we sleep at night, AC doesn’t work. It has been a rough couple of months. Things aren’t getting fixed timely either.

We'd like very much to work with you to resolve this, so if you're willing to discuss, please reach out to us at desertcreekmgr@greystar.com and we'll figure it out together.
Staff is friendly, however everything is always broken (hot water heater, electricity, fan, heat, air conditioning, and more.). Water is turned off every week due to some kind of maintenance. I have had two incidents were the resident above me flooded the apartment, so it came into my apartments causing leaks, damage, mold, and the removal of my ceiling fan and where my electrical outlet in my bathroom no longer works. I will not be renewing my lease unless I am able to move to a different apartment with upgrades such as a 1 br 1ba at the same price I am paying now, in leiu of all the issues that have occurred here during my stay.

Hi, we work hard to provide a fantastic experience to everyone. It's discouraging to see that you had a negative experience. We fell short of meeting your expectations, and that's not OK. At Desert Creek Apartments, we strive to do better, and we humbly ask for the opportunity to make it right! Thanks for providing this info - we'll use it to improve, and we hope to hear from you soon.
Desert Creek is the only apartment complex that treated us like people when we were looking at apartments. It is one of a few apartment complex that does not have a crazy priced pet rent for large dogs. Just like everywhere else when rent goes up it is manageable they tell you way in advance to.

I have never been so stressed out with management at an apartment complex, I have lived in apartments most of my life and this by far the worst experience I have ever had at any apartment I’ve ever lived. I had been towed twice because the numbers on the reserved parking spaces were unable to be seen. My apartment gets flooded when it rains, the heating and cooling system is extremely out of date and it over flows with water cause of moisture and it doesn’t cool the house at all! The complex is infested with roaches I’ve been trying to kill them with a powerful roach gel poison that’s very expensive and it still doesn’t deter them, there’s mice! My neighbors are very inconsiderate, they barbecue in front of the apartment and don’t clean up after themselves, I’ve had my food orders stolen from my front porch. The neighbors hygiene is so bad it’s unbearable to walk passed them just to get to my apartment. I do not believe management is out for our best interest nor do they care about people’s living conditions.
