Birds and bad management
The outdoor dryer vent cover flaps are faulty and permanently stay slightly open, allowing birds to come and go as they please. This results in birds nesting in the vents of many of the units in the building. If you stand in the parking lot of the building for just a minute you will see birds flying in to at least 5 different vents. In my unit specifically, birds could be heard flapping around and chirping inside of my apartment, keeping me up at night. On top of this being noisy and annoying,... it's also extremely unsanitary. The building manager and maintenance staff do not care. I contacted them numerous times about the issue before they finally sought professional help to come and get the birds out of multiple units. They had a guy come and use some suction tool to get the bird out. They did nothing to fix the vent cover and the bird was back within two hours. They stated "we can't put new vent covers on or they would have to be cleaned every 6 months." When I told them the bird was back two hours later, they stated "they would look into it," and I never heard anything again. When I moved out a few months later, the apartment manager asked why I was moving out and stated he had no idea the birds were still an issue. Terrible management. Do not live here unless you enjoy the sound of birds moving and chirping in your vents while you are trying to sleep. On top of that, the maintenance crew lacks judgment skills and let themselves into my apartment without my permission, did my laundry, and dried my clothes for 90 minutes on high heat to prove that the dryer worked (it didn't, the birds nests prevent proper drying).
