Sadly not as great as it use to be

I have lived here for more than 10 years, it has been the place I've called home for a long time. With the change in management, the building complex quality has worsened. The corridors/elevator are dirty and there can be bugs seen around the complex. The management is unfriendly especially if you have lived here for a while. There has been an increase in stolen packages/stolen mail (from the actual locked mail boxes) and car window break ins. Instead of attempting to find a solution for these security breaches, management will not make themselves responsible for anything and will end up blaming you. I no longer feel safe here and the management is not interested in improving the situation for tenants.
