Hawthorne Park Apartamentos

Absolutely worst place to rent. !!! Overpriced. Broken down. EMBARRASING TRASH EVERYWHERE (including couches, pillows, garbage lined property that is NEVER cleaned up. Very bad rules. Keeps deposit NO MATTER WHAT. No availability for maintenance on the weekends. Stabbings. Gunshots through apartments. JUST DONT!!!! Very controlling. I'm surprised that they don't say everyone needs to be in bed by 8pm.

We are very happy at Hawthorne Park. Chris, our maintenance man, is very responsive to our needs and he is very friendly and professional whenever he comes in to provide services.

I think that the current management and maintenance team is doing the very best they can to overcome some difficult circumstances over the last couple of years. We really like it here.

Management refuses to take care of the apartments or on site pool. My bathroom wall is falling apart, ceiling falling down, standing water on floor from a water leak and my son is beat up daily by the neighboring hoodlooms. Definitely not a good place to live!!!

My granddaughter and I toured this property and just no way. Dumpsters overflowing, garbage in every corner of the property and nobody cleans it up. It is stuck in the trees and bushes. Plastic bags everywhere. Pay for more dumpsters, cheapskates! Hire a grounds crew! There's no excuse for just leaving that crap there. The entire north side of the property is bordered by a wall of trash stuck in the brushline. Can you seriously not see this? I'm amazed that the city hasn't given them a citation... for this landfill they call an apartment complex. The pool is currently full of slime green water that will probably breed a new race of super mosquitoes this summer. Enjoy your Zika and West Nile! I don't know who in this place owns a skinny, medium sized dog but it was running free through the complex and I almost hit it with my car. Total slum. Lee mas

Things you'll like:
Pets OK with hefty extra fees and monthly pet rent.
New management has made some improvements, but more needed.
Affordable rent.
The school bus picks children up at a designated spot inside the complex, not on the street, much safer.
Most apartments have updated appliances.
Most people seem to be employed and keep their respective areas clean.
Children often roam the complex grounds, but seem mostly well behaved.
Laundry room is generally clean with machines in working order,... affordable wash/dry.
Structures seem to be built well enough that you cannot hear through walls/floors/ceilings.

Things you'll hate:
Carpet in all the units I've seen is "renter brown" and completely worn out.
High-speed internet is not available from any provider.
Dumpsters are small and sparse, so trash is continually overflowing into the street despite being picked up twice a week.
You will sometimes step in dog crap.
The speed bumps are ridiculous (5-6" high) and will damage the shocks/struts on most vehicles, donked-out vehicles with lo-pro tires and trim kits will be completely destroyed by these things, although most of us don't care because we think it looks stupid anyway.
Parking spaces are TINY and everyone will bang the side of your car getting in and out of theirs, it's unavoidable.
No curb stops to prevent cars from driving over the edge of the retaining wall, this has happened, (it wasn't pretty), please pay attention to what gear you're in, R and D are vastly different.
Wood railings on stairs are not painted or sanded, you will get splinters if you slide your hands along them. Lee mas
