    Neighborhood

    With its pastel-painted, historic buildings, colorful murals, and sidewalks lined with palm trees, Downtown Melbourne combines a beachy vibe with locally-owned boutiques, restaurants, and bars. The atmosphere is fun-loving and carefree, but this is much more than a resort town. Downtown Melbourne is the business core of the Space Coast with major employers like the nearby Space Center, Rockwell Collins, Northrop Grumman, and Harris Corporation.

    High-tech industries and charming shops aside, Downtown Melbourne is also minutes from the beaches along what's called the Space Coast -- cross the bridge over the Indian River and you'll discover a strand of white-sand beaches and crashing waves. After a day at the beach, residents of Downtown Melbourne can visit Meg O'Malley's Restaurant and Irish Pub, a local favorite, or they can catch a show at the Henegar Center for the Arts.

    School data provided by 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.

    Infested with roaches

    The apartments are disgusting and filled with roaches.

    Roaches

    The townhouse is infested with roaches. It has been weeks since requesting pest control yet nothing has been done about it.

    Infested with roaches

    The apartment I live in is currently has hundreds of roaches. I kill about 4 a day and they keep coming back. Its very nasyy

    Management go above and beyond

    As the parent of an international student I have always found the management extremely helpful and supportive. I would not hesitate to recommend Melbourne Commons.

    9/4/21
    Very nice place but HORRIBLE management

    I lived here for two years. The apartment and environment is nice, but management is AWFUL. First of all, it was very difficult to get them to come fulfill a service order; it took as long as two weeks (with several phone calls) to get them to respond. And when they eventually did show up, they always failed to fix the problem or even broke something else. Came to fix the sink? Started leaking again 3 days later. Came to fix my fan? Broke my ceiling light. Only reason I stayed here for 2 years was the proximity to Florida Tech campus.
