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 Sun Plaza
I’ve been at Sun Plaza for several years now. Management is always helpful and it’s a very comfortable place to be overall. Shopping is nearby also.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
Hi - thanks for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate the feedback.
My experience here has been a good experience for my family and I. Had a few problems here and there but nothing to serious that maintenance didn't immediately come and fix the problem.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
Thank you again for the great review! We really appreciate you.
Hard to believe I’ve been here that long. 6 years. Great community atmosphere. Natural landscaping. Comfortable apartment. Close to stores.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
You're the best! We really appreciate the positive review.
I would like to express my appreciation for Vanessa from the management team, who was incredibly helpful and made the entire process seamless. While I have only been a resident of Sun Plaza Apartments for a month I can say that my neighbors have been great, with the exception of one. I have also submitted a few service requests through the portal and hope they will be addressed soon. I would like to request the implementation of security services at night, as my car was previously targeted for a break-in. Aside from this concern, I have nothing else to report. I am looking forward to a great year in my new home!
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
We appreciate all reviews and appreciate you giving us the chance to improve by providing us with this feedback.
My experience with Sun Plaza so far has been great, the atmosphere is nice, neighbors are ok. Love that there is a laundry mat and small gym in the community, It’s quiet and calm at nights. Vanessa in the front office is amazing she is friendly, attentive and caring she has been so amazing helped us throughout the whole process she communicated well via phone and email. We have a few requests for maintenance that need to be completed. So far everything is well. I would recommend Sun Plaza to a friend or relative.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
Aw, thanks! Your amazing feedback and rating mean the world to us. We're always here for you! If you ever need anything else, just give us a call or stop by. Have an awesome day!
For the most part it is better here than some of the other places in area that aren't gated. Management has changed a couple of times since I been here; however, they all were to me pleasant and helpful.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
So good to hear from you! Thanks for letting us know. Let us know if you ever need any more help! All the best to you.
Overall The apartments are an old community, the main problem I have had is with roaches and plumbing. It is a quiet community, the staff are great people, friendly and try their best to resolve issues I have had in the past. I would recommend the apartments mainly for the safety and peacefulness.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
Hi - we really appreciate the positive review! Thanks for taking the time to do it.

Sun Plaza is a very comfortable place to live. It is a fairly large community (several buildings) and is very well managed. Surroundings and landscaping is pleasant also.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
Hi, your review about Sun Plaza made our day! Feel free to give us a call with any other questions! We're always happy to help.
Some of the worst apartments on Montgomery. Overpriced decaying buildings, new management every year.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review

This is year 5 for me here. Been very comfortable and glad to be here.
Property Manager at Sun Plaza, Responded To This Review
Awww, thanks friend! We really appreciate your kind words about Sun Plaza! Feel free to give us a call with any other questions! We're always happy to help.
Overall, it is okay here. However, they call the stairway a balcony and it really is not.
Been here since 2018; Completely happy the whole time. Would definitely recommend Sun Plaza to anyone searching.
I've been here for 5 years. been very comfortable from the start and continuing. I would definitely recommend Sun Plaza to anyone.
Nice community and great service from the office staff.
Its such a scary place to live in, theres always roaches in patios and roaming around the house, spiders everywhere also.
HUSTLERS. They tow your car with no warning OR boot it without communicating with you first. My townhouse was in absolute disrepair,sliding glass door was installed BACKWARDS, my house REEKED of stale cigarette smoke for weeks. The manager calls you”sweetheart”,which is so condescending and unprofessional. My A/C hasnt worked properly. Maintenance is the ONLY professional here. He is kind and communicative.
The staff is aweful they won’t do anything to help you! The stairs are too narrow to get the beds up so maintenance has to use a ladder to take the beds through the window but I’ve lived here for almost a month and still sleep on the floor. The kitchen is infested with roaches and we had to kill a mouse! No one give a crap here once they have your money your on your own.
It's ok but no pool no washer dryer in the apartment
