El Cerrito is a suburban Bay Area city positioned right between Berkeley and Richmond. Predominately a residential community, the local rental market is huge, and ranges from luxury apartments to condos to single-family homes on quiet neighborhood streets. The area offers ample opportunities to spend quality time outdoors: Hillside Natural Area provides great views of San Francisco Bay, and the sprawling Wildcat Canyon Regional Park is loaded with trails through the unspoiled rolling hills. The close proximity to larger cities like San Francisco and Oakland makes El Cerrito a popular option for commuters, and BART rail service makes it easy to get around the area without having to drive.

Property Ratings at The Village at Town Center
I lived here in a 2 bedroom for three years. They overcharged for garbage, water, sewer about $250 per month in addition to overpriced rent and other hidden fees (such as admin fees for processing your bill). None of the extra fees are clearly disclosed when you sign the rental contract. Mail and Bike theft is common. Most people move out as soon as their initial lease is over ( or sooner) because by then residents realize how much extra they are paying extra for hidden fees. To top it off Management is never there and you can only speak to them through the receptionist, who has an attitude problem. Management turnover is also very high. hey change year. Do NOT rent here and save yourself a headache and money !!!!
Property Manager at The Village at Town Center, Responded To This Review
Hello - We're truly sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate your feedback. We take your concerns seriously and value your feedback. If you would like to speak with our management team directly, please reach us at 1 510-544-7865. Thank you for leaving us a review.
My wife and I made our 2b/2b cozy. The maintenance crew was prompt, courteous, and efficient. The rent was competitive. But, beware of thieves. We paid over $200 for monthly garbage and water/sewer fees (for 2 people!) We kept our apartment clean and left it in great shape. But only a little over $100 of our $700 security deposit was returned. Moreover, our mail boxes were broken into several times and our locked bikes and bike parts were stolen 3 times. The company denied any responsibility for providing better security ( no cameras, no secured mail boxes, no night security patrols). Even though we felt cozy in our nice apartment, we never felt safe with our possessions, never felt that the company responded to our safety and security concerns, and never felt the exorbitant hidden services fees were justified. We cannot recommend this property for these reasons.
The apartments themselves are decent. The management is the worst I've ever dealt with. Package theft from the mailbox area is frequent and common. Bike theft isn't uncommon, even when your bike is locked up well. The parking lot gate is broken frequently, so anyone can just walk right in. Management doesn't do anything to address these problems besides repairing the gate when it predictably breaks 1-2 per month. On two occasions, one of the maintenance workers just walked in to our apartment during the middle of the day when we were working from home. And a couple other times attempted to walk in but our door was locked. After we moved out, they took stuff from our security deposit that made no sense like insufficient notice and extra rent, even though we gave them 30 days notice and paid the rent in advance that they said we owed on our move-out agreement. If you choose this place, get everything in writing and even then, you'll have to fight just to be treated fairly.
