Neighborhood

Situated a few miles south of Downtown Louisville, South Louisville is a sprawling community attracting renters who want a laidback, suburban lifestyle with easy access to the big city. South Louisville is a verdant area characterized by peaceful streets and spacious homes. Renters have an array of affordable apartments, single-family homes, and condos to choose from. Thanks to the highways and interstates that intersect the areas surrounding town, commuting for work or leisure is a breeze, but residents don’t have to go far for exciting opportunities. South Louisville is home to the Jefferson Memorial Forest and partially borders the Ohio River, making everything from water sports to hiking popular pastimes. For those who prefer the indoors, retail centers along Outer Loop Road and Southside Drive provide plenty of shopping and dining choices.

Nice place to live

This is a very laid back and quiet place. It really suits my personality and character. I like that the maintenance is spot on and efficient when it comes to solving any issues within the facility. It really seems to have very mature neighbors which gives me a sense of security and peace.

This place is excellent because it is top-notch customer service top notch management top-notch maintenance. I’ve had nothing but a good experience since I have been living here which has been almost 3 years. I couldn’t be more happy. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a nice place to live that is reasonably priced and safe, I have great neighbors and I’m within a short distance as most shopping areas. And I’m at the street from my job so that makes that more convenient as well. I’ve had nothing but a good experience since I’ve lived here. I’m so glad that I found this place and I plan on staying .

Southwood apartments is a quiet & subtle area. Management is professional and meets all the needs you may have concerning you place of living. They’re pet friendly, which I appreciate. They’re good with doing any work or maintenance in a timely manner. The neighbors are usually quiet & friendly. Things you may need are very close to the complex which is convenient. Overall southwood apartments is a decent place to reside & call your own for whatever period of time you may choose.

Last resort

South wood gave me one of the most horrible renting experiences ever! They don't change or even clean the carpet when people move out they just spray paint it, so blue dye stained my kids socks I literally had to buy new socks every few weeks. They send out notices for pest control but never come and actually do it. Also they don't have any good management. Lisa(who was addicted to heroin and stole people's deposit money orders) was the property manager, then they hired a tenant who had no experience and was addicted to meth, she quit after she got her first check and left to Florida then they had other managers from their other properties come and they didn't really care what was going on over there. Maintenance man lives in the property and never fixes anything because he said he doesn't get paid unless the manager gives him the ok (but there's no manager at this time) they have free cable but other than that this woul be a last resort because they'll rent to anybody!

Property Manager at Southwood, Responded To This Review

Southwood apartments is under new management since the time of this review. Southwood apartments does not dye carpet. All carpets are steam cleaned prior to move-in. Pest control is now handled by a reputable third party company. The manager or maintenance do not live on property, and were not hired as tenants. We encourage you to revisit the property since your last stay and see the upgrades to the community. We are sorry for any bad experience you have had. Thank you.
