Pinewood Villas Apartments

This place is gross. Demographic is awful, parking is a joke, management is non-existent, barking dogs, stray cats, unsupervised troubled children, fireworks, loud music, drug deals are a daily occurrence here. I’d rather live under a bridge than this dump.

Work request completed, but terrible quality. It looks dirty , but it’s due to poor materials. There is a gap between window frame and wall. The floor border pealed same day if installed. Greatly disappointed. Do not rent here. They hire the cheapest vendors to complete work requests.

I've been living here for almost 20 years and for the most part I handled most problems that arose in my apartment. But for the past few years I've had health problems and have been unable to complete all but the simplest chores and have been forced to rely on the manager and apartment management to effect most of my maintenance issues. I have never had any problems getting my problems attended to. Most were taken care of the same day. It seems that most people that leave these negative reviews do so because they have problems following the most basic common sense rules that are enforced by the complex management. I have lived in other complexes in the past and have not been able to leave the same quality reviews. I have no reason to look elsewhere, and despite other reviews I've read I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a care free environment at a reasonable price.

I honestly couldn't tell you what the management here does. They don't answer phones, don't return messages, do NOT walk the property or enforce ANY of the rules, especially pet rules. Dogs are always running wild and barking constantly. Kids are out at all hours of the night screaming and vandalizing. There have been SHOOTINGS here, the parking is absurd. The overcrowding is like something you'd see in a third world country situation. This is by far the absolute most disgusting and run down place I've seen, and the management, if there actually is any, is a total joke.

First, I’d like to point out that I don’t think I’ve ever left a negative review against any company. If I don’t like how things are I just go elsewhere, but since management has refused to respond to my emails or phone calls I’m left with no choice but to warn anyone looking to move here. When I first moved in, this complex was a great deal for the price but it’s gone way downhill in the last 3 years while at the same time the rent has skyrocketed. Here are just a few of my complaints - 1. In the last 3 years my rent went up $500 and I had to deal with 2 shootings. The first shooting was across the street from the complex, but the 2nd shooting was inside and I watched them wheel the victim passed my apartment. 2.Several days a week, trash is piled so far around the trash enclosures it’s almost impossible to park. 3.The manager has changed her hours so she’s impossible to reach if you happen to hold a day job like many people. The office is only open from 9-5, M-F…..Unless she happens to be at lunch, or just decided to close for the day with no notice. 4.Recently, half of the laundry rooms were closed for over a month with no notice given 5.Children urinate and defecate in the pool on a regular basis and it is not closed. I stopped using the pool for years because of this but finally tried it again thinking the issue had be resolved….WRONG. I don’t think there’s a grosser feeling than swimming and having someone come up and tell you a kid pooped in the pool a few hours earlier. 6.Emails and phone calls with questions or requests for service are rarely responded to. I learned to just deal with this and it wasn’t that big of an issue until I moved out. A portion of my deposit has not been returned due to "insufficient notice". The only reason there was insufficient notice is the manager refused to answer my multiple calls and emails to accept my notice. So now, I'm getting charged because she didn't do her job. I have a much longer list of issues with the management at this complex, but I’ve spent enough time getting frustrated over them.
