City - Glendale

Blending small-town Western charm with hip urban modernism, Glendale is a fairly large city that never feels too big. This northwest Phoenix suburb is an excellent place for sports fans – between NFL and NCAA football games at University of Phoenix Arena, NHL matches at Gila River, and MLB Spring Training games at Camelback Ranch, there's always a major sporting event to attend.

Thanks to the constant sunshine, it’s a great city for folks who like to stay active, with easy access to mountain biking, camping, hiking, and generally exploring the rugged landscape just beyond the city. The shopping, dining, and entertainment in town runs the gamut from the ultra-modern Westgate City Center to the antique shops and storefront cafes along Glendale Avenue, providing options for every taste. With houses and apartments available for highly affordable rental rates, the Glendale lifestyle is within reach for any budget.

Highly recommend if you can afford it

The only reason why I am not renewing my lease is because of affordability, but other than that, it has been a wonderful experience!

Destiny has been so helpful.. anytime I call the office for anything she makes sure it gets done , fixed , & solved .. I’m near my job & my school I have no complaints literally ..

DV Apartments

This place is the perfect place for those who have kids in high school. It's not a far distance to walk to schools. The maintenance staff stays on top of everything. The staff in the front office is very flexible when comes to the day you need to pay your rent. The front office is always clean and fresh. It has a welcoming feel to it.

8/8/15
Peaceful and private

I've been in the Desert Vista apartments for a few months now and don't have a single complaint. Maintenance responds within a day to a request or question, the office manager is extremely helpful, they are very animal friendly, and rent is affordable. The buildings are only about 11 years old and it is a smaller community which I like. It's a very quiet community and I have friends in nearby apartments that have some issues and I feel lucky to be so happy here!

Desert Vista

The moment after the tour of apartment and complex my best friend and I knew that we wanted to sign the lease. We came back that afternoon with deposit and necessary paperwork in hand. The process was quick and easy. The entire complex always smells of fresh flowers and is never dirty. It is a small complex so it is easy to drive through and not get lost. There is hardly any noise and all the people are very friendly. Very family and pet friendly. My roommate and I have been here going on two years. We are truly happy we picked these as our place to live. Would highly recommend this to anyone looking.

Awesomeness

Apartment home and it's mine all mine. Close to work and yet no yard work. Shopping, dining and entertainment all near by what else can you ask for. Worry free living with a pool and rec room for entertaining. Managers and mainteness are the best, there to help with all your requests. Pet friendly and friendly neighbors. Pretty perfect place to live.
