The living experience is too dependent on things outside of the resident’s control. If you move in, you’d better hope your upstairs neighbor respects quiet hours or has some sort of awareness and courtesy towards others. There’s no point to complaining to management because the neighbor can simply say, “Oh, that’s not me stomping periodically through the night.” and they’re off the hook. Then you’re just the annoying complainer who is expected to get out of bed and record your neighbor to report... them and it becomes a never-ending cycle.
The Cannonballers’ stadium blasts music well into quiet hours on weeknights, even when there isn’t a game and all the lights are off. I’m a big sports fan and game days/nights are cool, and everything noise wise in that regard is expected and perfectly fine with me, but why is there music blasting past 11:00 into midnight on a Tuesday in early March? Luckily the genres they play are pretty good if you’re looking for a positive to that situation.
If you can work around the noise issues, it’s a decent place. I’ve found that running two white noise machines at high volume and sleeping with my head in between a few pillows blocks the stomping noise/vibrations from above and the hallways somewhat well, but next solution will be noise cancelling headphones if that ends up failing long term. Like anything in life, you have to fix your own problems.
Street parking can be challenging at times.
I’ve wanted to love it here, and I do sometimes, and other times I regret moving in. But I will continue to try to make adjustments to my sleeping habits to manage things outside my control.
Best of luck if you choose to join the community. For now, it’s a low rating for me.
