Great location with many stores and restaurants within walking distance. Unfortunately, there continue to be inconsiderate neighbors slamming doors & yelling at their kids in the hallways.

We have enjoyed our 2 years at The Emerson very much. The overall environment and value is pretty hard not to appreciate. The location convenience, overall cleanliness and management professionalism is top notch. When needed, the maintenance staff is very responsive, friendly, and thorough.
