15 years here in Salem MA. Could be better, could be worse. Hoping the New Year will be better. I Love my pool time. Communication needs work from the office. Although many new faces thru the years.

The Communication between resident and staff could be better. There’s never any clear response and no groundskeeper. The area is not great, and need better, more responsible maintenance and management.
