This is by far the worst environment I've ever lived in, and I've lived in military barracks and on ships. It seemed real nice when we moved in, nice neighbors, no noise, a little small, but comfortable. Then the nice, quiet South Asian neighbors below us moved out and new ones moved in. Bring on the superloud mariachi music and cigarettes wafting up through the windows! The music was so loud below us it destroyed our evenings. We complained and complained, and finally they moved over to another building. It was nice and quiet, then four months later a new family moved in. Bring on the loud surround sound TV and stereo in the living room AND bedrooms. Since they moved in, our life has been hell. Every night we've had to battle the loud noise. We've tried to talk to them and were cursed out. We complained multiple times to the management office, to no avail. Sometimes we can't get to sleep at night because the loud TV in the bedroom. In the summertime we can't sit on our balcony or have our door open because the smoke from their cigarettes would come wafting in, reeking up the place. Sometimes our daughter's bedroom will reek of cigarettes through the floor. Then we found out the teenage son was on probation, mostly through the many times the cops have been called out to that apartment from fighting with the parents. One of the cops even told me, "Yeah, we're sure there are drugs in there." Yeah, our family feels real safe in this hellhole! I went to the office to complain again, and nothing was done about the noise. I told them I wanted out of this lease, and was offered another apartment. Why would I want to move into another apartment here, or anywhere run by this company' If we broke the lease, we'd have to pay a whole month's rent, in addition to trying to get a new place. Can't afford it on my military pay. This place was on the military's recommendation list at Fort Meade. I'll do everything I can to make sure it is taken off as soon as possible. I'd hate to see any other serviceman live in this hellhole. Our lease is up in April and we're counting the days! Trust me, avoid this place!!! If you're in the military and considering this place or any AIMCO property, look at the reviews! I rented from spring '06 through spring '08. ...
