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 The Mercantile
New management took over and turned this building around. Renovated the lounge, very responsive, and take care of the building.
The new management has made a huge difference. They are very responsive, and problems are fixed quickly. They also renovated the lounge, which was a huge plus.
I was leaving in the biulding for a year, loved the place! the mgmt company was really responsive for every issue that i had. Beautiful lobby and great gym!
Property Manager at The Mercantile, Responded To This Review
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review for our USCC and leasing staff. We wish you the very best, and a bright future! Staff,
I was so excited to view this property and have been reaching out for weeks both email and over the phone and am extremely disappointed in their lack of communication. If they won’t even communicate to new people trying to give them their money, how do they treat their residents?
I have tried to contact them for a week now and they don’t email or call back. Disgusting customer service.
I have been looking for an apartment for a long time and I have finally found my place at the new USCC. Its really modern like living in a luxury hotel but it still has those old features that I love, like exposed brick and the beam in my bedroom. Located right in the heart of Downtown Columbus I can walk to my work as well as many eateries, pubs, bars and shows which I take full advantage of. Great management. Easy to work with.
