Brookview at Citrus Park Apartamentos

KEEP LOOKING!!
Do not settle for this place.
The agents do not know anything about the property, they do not care about anyone on site. They clock in and clock out. They will tow your car and say there isn't anything you can do about it. They then tell you to park in visitor parking to avoid being towed, but in the contract it says if a resident parks in a visitor parking spot they can/will be towed. The manager does not like to come out of their office. The walls are paper thin. This place is... not where you want to live. Lee mas

The grounds are upkept, the maintenance staff is phenomenal and the office crew is excellent. The apartments are spacious and the neighbors are wonderful.

Nice place to live! Pretty calm and organized. Lots of walking paths and trees and lakes! Perfect place to raise kids
The staff is kind and helpful, Erin and Ashley are great! Always willing to help and caring for the residents.

PROS:
- People drive recklessly in the community.
- So fast the speed bumps get pulled out of the ground.
- People do not stop at the stop signs.
- Loitering and prowling is voluminous.
- People block the sidewalks.
- Large piles of dog poop everywhere.
- Piles of trash everywhere.
- Bugs and vermin everywhere.
- Sometimes there's a very strong toxic waste smell (really bad).
- Valet trash does not pick up regularly.
- Parked cars block walkways.
- Residents and visitors get their cars towed.
-... People ride bike at full speed on the sidewalk.
- Skaters force you off the sidewalk.
- Poorly maintained lawn.
- A/C always leaking refrigerant.
- Paper thin walls (i can hear my neighbors doing it)
- Weed smell in almost every building.
- Beer bottles on the lawn.
- THEY LIKE TO ENTER THE APARTMENT 5 times a year. ALL SORTS OF EXCUSES from fumigation, to fire inspections twice a year, to fire extinguisher inspection, to visual inspection. Just because they feel like it.

CONS:
- See above. Lee mas

This place feels like a resort. The apartment is beautiful and bright. The pictures for this advertisement don’t do justice to the place because the palm trees, plants, and shrubs are all mature and more lush now.

The grounds are impeccable. There’s a company that comes and mows the lawn every week, but there is a guy that is such a hard worker. He’s a full time employee and boy, does he make this place look nice and tidy with the leaf blower, power washer, picking up here and there. The pools... are always clean and well maintained too.

About parking. Yes, there are rules to not get towed. It’s a pretty simple rule. Do not park in front of someone else’s garage blocking them and do not park on the curb because you’re too lazy to walk an extra minute. There are clearly marked visitor parking spots. It’s not rocket science.

Maintenance is the best. Sweetest guys ever. You put in a request for a service on their app, and they come usually on the same day.

Bugs. Ah, bugs. Rest assured I have not seen any and I have lived here for almost a year. There’s a pesticide company that comes every Friday and they treat the outside of all buildings. They even clean up cob webs and whatnot with some long pole brushes. They can come and treat the inside upon request.

Gym? Awesome. Everything works and it’s always clean. Including the bathroom. Remember that guy I mentioned earlier? He’s always on top of it.

It is a gated community so I feel very safe. Publix, Walmart, gas stations, pharmacy, Upper Tampa Trail (beautiful place) are all under a 10 minute drive.

School for kids. The bus stops right in front of the office to pick up and drop off the kids. Very convenient. Tons of kids of all ages in the neighborhood.

Front desk. Ashley is very efficient. Top notch and takes care of all needs quickly.

Sometimes they have a food truck that comes like Carrabbas. So cool. Also, the big red bus stops by for blood donation. Very convenient.

I was not paid to write all this. Lol I’m glad I moved out of Indiana and away from the snow. This place is everything I ever dreamed about in depressionville and then some. Treasure Island, St Pete Beach, Clearwater are 1/4 of a tank of gas away (less than 40 minutes away). Pack a cooler and let’s go! Love it!
