I honestly wish I can leave 0 stars on this apartment complex.
I have been a resident of fourth street apartments since April 2023. I have never written a google review in my life but due to the gravity of my situation, I would like to inform future residents so they can avoid the shameful mistake I made signing with this apartment complex in April 2023
In the past 9 months I lived here, I have never seen the garage door work for more than 2 weeks. When it stops working, It is down for 3+ weeks because the apartment complex is "at the mercy of their vendors". As I am writing this review, it is Jan 6 2024. The garage has been not functional and left open since the first week of December. This leaves cars parked in the garage open to theft. There is "security" in front of the garage which is meant to inspect cars entering the premises but honestly they are useless. They do not inspect anything and I have often seen the so called security that is meant to be inspecting cars sleeping in front of the garage
During the first 3 months of my residency, my car was burgled. I have attached a picture to my review for reference. This shows the damage that was done to my car WHILE IT WAS IN THE PARKING GARAGE under the surveillance of the "security". This prevented me from using the door handle on the driver side of the car. Anytime I wanted to get into my car, I had to push the drivers side door open through the passenger side. FYI, whoever did this came two nights in a row. The door was somewhat functional after the first attempt but the second attempt is what brought my car to the final state shown in the picture attached. After I brought this up to the leasing office, It was just insincere compassion. I filed a police report but that was just a dead end. Around this time, they also sent an email saying they are "beefing up security" but it was just useless/lackadaisical/lazy individuals that never vet who was entering the garage. I had my neighbor also tell me someone ransacked her car looking for money. She had her money missing from her car
Fast forward to December 2023. I took a trip away from California for the holidays. I parked my car inside the garage, in my appointed parking spot. Doors locked, windows up. I return on the first week of January 2024, and MY CAR WAS STOLEN FROM THE GARAGE (remember I said the garage doors have not worked during the month of December and the security was useless. This proves that). If you are wondering, yes, the same blue car you see attached in the pictures was the one stolen. I was so confused when I discovered it was stolen. Upon reporting it to the leasing office, it was still the same insincere compassion, no action. They have no liability should anything happen to your car, even if they leave the garage open 24/7. The only thing they told me was "sorry, file a police report"
If i could go back in time I would never sign with this place. Since I cannot, I want to help you reading this not to make my foolish mistake of signing a lease with this place. If you need more convincing here are some more supporting points
-Packages delivered to the mailroom are never organized. They can be easily stolen and many residents complain about stolen packages
-Elevators don't work (sometimes)
