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 Prairie Point Apartments
Didn’t even want to give a star.. Spiders in rooms. They laugh in your face when asking serious question? They don’t try to work with you. Quick to get a check from you and even quicker to throw you out if you’re late. Just horrible with the residents

We are concerned by the claims in this review, and due to the sensitive nature of this situation, we feel it would be best to discuss this matter directly. Please contact our management team at your earliest convenience. -The Team at The Reserve at Prairie Point & Prairie Point Apartments
The rent goes up EVERY year. The pool is constantly closed for repairs every summer. The treadmills in the fitness room are always broken.
Property Manager at Prairie Point Apartments, Responded To This Review
Hi there. We are saddened to see your concerns and think it would be best if we furthered this discussion with you directly. Please give us a call at your earliest convenience and we would be happy to speak with you.
Apartments are perfectly adequate. The management, however, is awful. They are not on your side.

The best apartments in Northwest Indiana. New units, good quality, and great location. The office staff is remarkable.. so friendly, an very professional!
Property Manager at Prairie Point Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you for the 5 Star Review. Your feedback is important to us and will surely help us to continue to strive for excellence. We are very please of your comments on the location of community which is very convenient and the quality of our apartment homes. Thank you again!
Very cooperative with move ins and outs. Staff is friendly and accommodating to your needs. The apartment was much nicer and bigger than we expected. Would recommend to a friend
Moved in a few months ago and so far very pleased with my apartment at the Reserve. The staff was very helpful and accommodating throughout the move-in process. Area around the apartments is quieter, yet still close enough to U.S. 30 where you can find all the shops and restaurants.
This place is awesome . Great people great complex, pool with kitchen and grill. Couldn't be happier
I love living here at Prairie Point. Apartments have a nice townhouse feel. Its very quiet, peaceful and there are alot of fun things to you from playing volleyball to swimming. The location is also perfect, its near many restaurants and the mall. The office staff are also very friendly and helpful... If I could give this complex 10stars I would..... You would be making a huge mistake if you did not move here
I've been in my apartment for 8 months. They keep the complex grounds very clean. I really enjoy using the gym! They have really nice equipment! The rent is a bit high but I overall I'm pleased!
