Unethical Management and Leasing Practices

I broke my lease after three days of living in the apartment. I've talked to residents who have done the same. The area is very unsafe. They won't tell you that. People injecting themselves outside the 7/11 next door. There is a vast construction project. They won't tell you that. They make money from people breaking their lease. Don't live here, especially if you're a student like myself.

Great place to live

I have been livening here for 18 months and I am very happy that I rented an apartment at Commonwealth. Excellent location- close to everything in center city. Reading terminal market is just few minutes walk. The tenants are friendly and quiet. In unit washer and dryer. The manager, leasing office and the maintenance are great. There is nothing to complain about.
