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 Forest Park Apartments
These apartments are clearly older, but they are well cared for and clean. The staff here is absolutely unbeatable!!! They are fun, easy going, but also firm! I cannot say enough good things about them. If there is an issue they solve is right away. The apartments are good, especially for the price. I’d recommend to anyone.
Property Manager at Forest Park Apartments, Responded To This Review
I'm happy to hear that our team has provided you with excellent service. I'll make sure to pass along all your comments. It will for sure make their day! Thank you for taking the time give us your feedback. Have a great day! Tammy Wittig, Director of Operations
I've lived here 4 years and I don't have any complaints. The office staff to the maintenance men are amazing. The property manager is amazing and always has a smile even when you see him out in the community. They are kind hearted and greet you by name and treat you like more than an apartment number. When I have ever needed something fixed or helped with something Shane has been to my apartment with in 30min and has it done. Even the unfortunate middle of the night maintenence call they are here with in 30min. They have pest control spray every few months so that we don't have any spiders or unwanted friends in the apartments. Honestly it's been an amazing experience living here. The complex I live in is usually very quiet and the neighbors are very friendly. There are lots of dogs being walked around and all are happy to welcome being pet. When the pool is open (pre covid) it is very well kept and clean making it enjoyable for us as well as our guest.
I’ve just moved in a few weeks ago but already I love Forest Park! The staff is very friendly and quick to respond! I’ve been full of questions as this is my first apartment and they’re always so helpful! My unit is very cozy and perfect for my needs. The area is safe and quiet too!
I rented from them for almost a year and a half. Crystal and all of the forest park employees were wonderful, they were kind and courteous. Fast and on time, and very affordable. A great first apartment, and I highly recommend it to anyone!

Hi There, We really appreciate all of your wonderful comments! We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Forest Park! Thank you for taking the time to give Forest Park a review and we wish you well in your new home! Sincerely, Dave Morgan, Property Manager
We were having a horrible time finding a pet friendly apartment that was close to our new jobs. We were just looking on the Internet when we came across Forest Park. We immediately fell in love with it just by the website. We went to the leasing office and we were welcomed as if if was already our home. It has been amazing and the staff is always here for us if we ever need them! I also want to add we signed a lease 2 weeks after we viewed the model apartment! They are just amazing!
I've been very pleased with Forest Park. It's a beautiful property surrounded by courteous neighbors.
Our apartment is not just a building. Our apartment is a wonderful community, neighbors and staff become family, and it is a good home. The area is safe and well maintained. It is right next to a hiking trail park. There is a pool, community garden, bbq areas, a relaxing gazebo, and plenty of parking. The staff is what make this place even more wonderful. They are like family member to us. My children knows all of them and I know they are safe. People stay here for many years because it's home sweet home.
