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 Lincoln Square Apartments
Loud music is played extremely late at night by other tenants. Management ignores complaints. Lived here for a year and have yet to make it a full week without being woke up to neighbors loud music.
Eric and Carol treat their clients with high priority and respect. When they say they’re going to do something they do it. My wife and I can’t say enough about Lincoln Square Apartments!!!
I heartily recommend Lincoln Square Apartments. The building managers and maintenance crew went above and beyond in accommodating me and my roommate and making us feel at home. The apartments encircle a beautiful courtyard complete with tables, grills and a pool. My unit itself was well-maintained, with spacious rooms, new carpet (in mine, at least) and a washer/dryer. The property also sits in the heart of Springfield’s historic downtown, walking distance or just across the street from many restaurants, bars, etc.
