|Recommended: YesI love living at the Junction, I just have had an odd experience so far — I wanted to wait a bit to see what my real review was of the apartment. A lot of the reviews I read were short and would mention an issue but not go into full detail. I wanted to make sure I could capture my actual experience here. So this is a bit long. I want to first say that I do enjoy living here but I think I had different expectations of what it would be like to live here and then I saw the reality. And a lot of that reality is just the reality of living in an apartment in general. So aftet living here a little over a month I think I have a good read on how I’m feeling. To start…
The Building staff and maintenance is phenomenal. Like amazingly phenomenal. 0 complaints. We had a few bumps in the road but they were very clear they were wanted to ensure our 100 satisfaction. Kacie, Vanessa, and the other office staff are very easy to talk to and communicate with. Anytime I run into maintenance staff or other staff on the grounds they are extremely polite, courteous, and friendly. So all of the issues that I bring up in the review are totally out of their control. I feel like if they could fix them they would 100
There was a lot of litter on the grounds when I moved in from residents near my building. It does get picked up every once in a while but I can’t blame the maintenance staff or whoever cleans it up. It would be really hard to keep up with when everyone’s just throwing trash into the grass constantly. The carpets in the common spaces are dirty from residents bringing their garbage out of their apartments to just trashing the place in general. The maintenance stuff works really hard on keeping up with it they are amazing , But it’s a lack of care and respect for the building from residents that is the true problem. There’s no way that they can keep up with cleaning our carpets vacuuming and maintaining of those spaces for all of these buildings. You can easily submit a request to clean the building and it gets handled right away but I feel like I’d be requesting it every week which seems a little picky but it gets really gross
I knew I was moving into a dog friendly apartment which was totally cool but the grass just reeks of dog Urine unless a good rain comes. My neighbors keep a dog in a kennel right by my bedroom. So he barks whenever they’re not home the walls are so thin I can even hear him scratching in the crate. The dog above me tears around the house late at night right when I’m falling asleep and it sounds louder than it probably is. But the thing is they are dogs that’s what they do I can’t complain about them it’s more of the fact that the walls and floors are not super sound proof. I guess that’s what I signed up for
My upstairs neighbors are pretty quiet same with the neighbors to the sides of me and the one below me. The things I can hear from them are just normal every day living things that once again lends itself to the poor quality of the walls and floors.
Some of the people that live here are a bit sketchy. We’ve seen people smoking in the building and lighting up illegal substances through the windows which makes us worry about fires and other issues involving our safety. You can smell weed in the hallways and outside most of the time. We have a few cigarette smokers outside regularly in the grilling space so if we leave the windows open we smell the smoke. We try to enjoy our porch but occasionally the cigarette smoke blows our way and we end up just going inside. There are lots of cigarette buds and trash near the grill stations where they smoke. they do get cleaned up within a week or so.
After making a complaint in my building after being bit by a dog, my car was messed with in the garage. The only cameras in garage are pointing at the garage door so there is no evidence of who did it.
You get one garage parking spot and the parking lot is first come first serve. If you are planning on having more than one car in use It can be annoying. If I get home anytime after five it becomes really hard to find parking here. People park in non-parking spots because there’s literally nowhere else to go. There are many days where I have to park in the Costco parking lot because there are absolutely no spots. When you pay this much to live somewhere you should be able to park near your building or at least a building down . I don’t need an up close spot by any means but parking at Costco, or parking almost 3 buildings down behind a building that isn’t even mine, isn’t very convenient at all. This would obviously be my biggest complaint here. I went from living in the city where I had to spend 140 a month on parking otherwise fight for a street spot to here thinking that I would finally be able to not panic about leaving my house at night and losing a parking spot. It was a little disappointing.
With all this being said, I will say my apartment is better than any other I have lived in. I did live in the city where I spent the same amount on a very old very run down place. So these complaints are picky but it’s just my honest experience. I just expected things to be a little different especially paying so much to live here.
You can’t beat the location, amenities, and the overall look of the apartment. There were lots of marks on my walls, Stains on the carpet, dirty surfaces, and other nicks and scratches all over the apartment you can’t expect everything to look 100 new. I was told that my apartment was cleaned and fixed before I moved in so maybe it was just things that were overlooked Honestly there are minor little things and I am really satisfied with the beauty and layout of the apartment. we had a dent in our fridge and it was replaced without question .
I can see myself staying here for 2 to 3 years until I get a condo or a home for myself. Compared to everything in the area it is one of the best. The complaints I have are things that I am mostly OK dealing with, but might be a dealbreaker‘s for other people. I think when you see these apartments you get one idea of what it is like living here and when you move in the veil is lifted and you kind of see that it’s not as perfect as it seems. That is just apartment living. The only way I could see myself moving out of the apartments is if the parking just becomes too stressful. I think I might contact the building staff and see if there’s any solutions to the ordeal. I and the person I live with work really late nights and one of us always has to bite the bullet and be the one to park at Costco...
I would definitely recommend the junction apartments to others, but I would be honest about my experience so that there are any surprises when they get here.

|Recommended: YesThe cleanliness of all areas inside and out have dramatically decreased the past two years — Our apartment is very nice. Parking is a nightmare The common areas such as stairways, trash rooms and landscaping needs serious attention.
Thank you for your review Elizabeth! We are happy that you love your new home! We are always available to discuss your concerns on parking, hallways and landscaping and we are excited to share with you the news of all the great things taking place in your community; Landscaping is being redone and hallways are getting a fresh make over. The majority of our apartment homes come with an underground parking stall included in the rent so when utilized by all eliminates the overflow of parking in the lot. The Junction Management Team.
|Recommended: YesGreat location, maintained very well. — The location is prime suburban feel with the big city just 20 minutes away. Anything you need as far as stores and restaurants is nearby. Only complaint is I was told there would be tons of parking available, however when I come home in the evening it is nearly impossible to find an open spot.

|Recommended: YesGreat Complex — I've really enjoyed the first week I've spent here. The apartments are very modern and clean, the storage space inside the apartment is spacious, and the overall complex amentities are great. My only complaints is that the external parking is often scarce and the personal storage space in the garage is pretty small, but everything else is wonderful. The Junction is also in a great location, offering several nearby restaurant and shopping opportunities.

|Recommended: YesGreat Place For A Peace Of Mind — It's great place to live A lot of family, different diversity. I love it all around Only issue I think so far being here the last couple weeks are the garbage Some people throw there garbage all over, sometimes it smells really bad and sometime it don't, but it can get out of control quickly Only looked at once a week, that could be something that can be looked at more than once a week just for the other tenants who may feel the same way
