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 South Olive Apartments
Rent is expensive for the small sq footage you are renting not all units are "renovated" and the management of the property sucks! repairs take forever to handle and excuses are always made. as soon as my lease was up we left! Only plus for here is their gym and swimming pool..
The manager here is so sweet! I wish everyone I met was this nice. She was actually available for me and returned my call!
Apartments are a little old however are in a great location minutes from downtown Alhambra Shopping and Entertainment district and just a short drive from Pasadena, Apartment has a pool which is also a plus.
