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 apartments are nice but doesn’t have enough space, they are quiet and people stay to themselves. There is plenty of parking for the residents and guests. So far I have no complaints

The changes to leasing team have been great This rating is mainly based off the beginning of my stay. I had a very difficult time being able to contact The leasing team to have questions answered, recording, unknown balance
Property Manager at Forestwood, Responded To This Review
Thank you for letting us know that our current team has been helpful! If you have any pending questions or concerns, please contact us at cm@forestwoodapt.com.
Overall, the apartment itself has been a decent experience. The biggest issues come from some of the other tenants, not the property itself. It was a bit rocky in the beginning with past management, but the current team has made noticeable improvements. They’re more responsive and professional, which has helped a lot. With a few more efforts to enforce community standards, this place could be even better.
