School data provided by 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.

You're not getting what you are paying for!

I've been a resident of University Park for going on 2 years now, and it's just WAY TOO EXPENSIVE for what it's worth. I am paying TOP dollar for my apt and I don't have close to top of the line appliances and amenities. Not well managed on top of everything.

4/14/16
Poor Management

Great location, however the manager, Sara, is verbally abusive. I withdrew my reservation on an apartment due to her treatment towards me even though I really wanted the apartment. She also seems to consider tenants expendable as she remarked that she has 100s of other prospective tenants whom she can give the apartment to. It reflects poorly on the owners to hire an unprofessional manager who is unable to communicate respectfully with others.
