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.

South Bay Apartments is great! The location next to the highway can't be beat, and the leasing office staff are responsive and helpful. I also like how there are pool bands to ensure only residents are using the pool.

Property Manager at South Bay, Responded To This Review

Awww, thanks friend! We really appreciate your kind words about South Bay!

Lots of smokers in the South bay community. Hallways with bad odor. Dirty. Car wash hose keeps disappearing. Vacuum cleaner works randomly. Swimming pool privileges abused w numerous family members and gates prompted open for entry. Outdated older apartments. Pet waste still not being picked up. Heavy, heavy foot traffic upstairs.

Property Manager at South Bay, Responded To This Review

This apartment community has been more than just a place to live; it's been a home. The staff has always been incredibly friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure our needs were met. The building is well-maintained, and the amenities are fantastic. The community is vibrant and welcoming, fostering a sense of neighborliness that is truly appreciated. From the first day, we've felt like a part of something special. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, and the common areas are kept clean and inviting. We've enjoyed the social events and have made some wonderful connections with our neighbors. This community has provided a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable living experience, and we'll miss it dearly. Thank you for creating such a positive and supportive environment.

So far living at South Bay has been great. We’ve loved our experience in our new home for the past couple of months. Love the arches throughout and we love how every room is separated just like a house. The neighborhood is nice and quiet for the most part and from the neighbors we’ve met so far have been very kind. The staff and maintenance are always on top of everything when we need them. I’d say moving here was the best decision I could’ve made for my family:)

Things have really improved around here. I love how the office is doing things and having activities for us residents. They go above and beyond so often for us. I absolutely love how we have a book club now. The books that the office provides after we vote are amazing! The only thing I’d say is I wish we could get this pool bracelets already to keep out the intruders trespassing to our pool. We have the best new security officer here now too.

Property Manager at South Bay, Responded To This Review

Thank you so much for this great review! We have now implemented the pool wrist bands. You should have received the email notifying you to stop by the office for them. Sincerely, South Bay team

SouthBay is a great community to live in. The landscape is beautiful. The amenities is up to date. I would love to see more updates inside area like the kitchen. The apartments beautiful and spacious inside. My 3 bedrooms and 2 bath with sunroom look like a house. I plan to live here for years to come.

It has been a great first month! Trash pickup is a very nice extra. Pool has been very clean including the walking grounds. Have had a couple of maintenance requests and they were completed very quickly. Have had a bit of a problem with some ants but the complex has a bug guy that comes out so hopefully that helps. All in all, I am very much enjoying my the complex right now. No problem with neighbors whatsoever.

We have been living her going on 6 years now, I cannot even imagine moving. What can I say, Living here makes my life easier, period! The Management has always been friendly and knows everything about apartment living and now they upgraded with a new manager that is like having a second mom! My apartment is specious and worth every penny, and when something breaks or goes wrong, the maintenance guys , who can fix anything, are right there when they say they will be. I would like to say I use the awesome gym as often as I should but it is there to use 24hrs. I love the pool and my neighbors are all friendly. Hope we have a few new ones after they read this review. Best part, I don’t have to cut the grass! All I have to do is get the garbage outside my front door by 8pm. I’m not leaving anytime soon.

When we first moved here it was definitely a 5-star community.But over the last year is has really gone downhill the amenities are always getting postponed to a different date that never happens or canceled completely definitely will not be renewing our lease for a third time. And the new staff in the front is rude the only thing still good about this property is the maintenance crew.

We have been here at South Bay for 5 years now and love living here more every year! Where do I start…The Management and staff are friendly and responsive. They also have many fun events throughout the year. I also love the free Starbucks coffee (I’ll leave some for you!) The maintenance staff are quick to respond to my concerns and I truly believe that Roger can fix anything! John also does a great job keeping the grounds looking nice and clean! The amenities are also top-notch. Conveniently located, I tell you, it will take a special situation for me to live out of here as my South Bay apartment is one of my all time favorite places that I have called home.

On multiple occasions, I have reached out to the front office about trash being left out multiple days by my front door and not being picked. Unfortunately, I did not get a response back from the front office or from management. This is upsetting because we are required to pay for trash pick up and I have had to take the trash myself to the community trashcan. My worry is ants, the smell and rodents it attracts.
