I love my neighbors...and thank GOD I trust them..but this place is going downhill FAST. Last weekend there was a shooting and drug bust in the parking lot. The manager always says (if there is an issue) that it's inevitable. There are sex offenders living on site, convicted felons (drug charges), and LOTS of break in and vandalism. THe manager Michele, is horrible and lazy. The rest of the staff is amazing. Ms. Suzi and Adam make this place bearable. The parking is horrible, it floods like CRAZY. Good place to live for a SHORT period but definitely not safe and NO PLACE FOR A FAMILY.

My husband and I have lived here for four years and have seen many improvements. We also have many neighbors who have been here for many years. Like many apartments not everything is perfect. One of the main problems is the flooding in the parking lots during hurricane season, but then again this whole Southeast side of Houston floods very easily. We always park across the street when we know a huge storm in heading our way. One of the things we enjoy about the apartments here is how quiet it is especially at night. I enjoy having my own gated front porch and my own laundry room. The neighbors are nice but most just keep to themselves. Another plus is that it is a pet friendly environment. In the four years we've seen very diverse people move in and out. Most trouble makers, if any, don't last long. When I go and visit friends or family in OTHER apartments I hear how loud it is and see how many people are walking around and going in and out of peoples places and I feel lucky & safe to live in Altmonte Apartments. The 24 hour call service, maintenance, & security guard that lives on site is also a plus.

Me and my fiance moved in there in july from dallas. They appeared to be nice and the staff were very attentive and honest about things that weren't perfect. I didn't have problems with the apt. The only issue i ever had was that there were ants and the ice maker made nasty ice. My cause for concern is the managment! In december i was walking to my apt and a neighbor stopped me and proceeded to verbally harass me and told me things that i couldn't even repeat the police later. I went to the apt manager, Michelle White, and told her that i didn't feel comfortable living in my apt anymore and that i wanted to move. At this time i told her what happend. She told me things like " girl why are you crying? Are you about to start you rag?" She told me that, that was his personallity and that he was a "bullshitter". She told me that if i didn't feel comfertable i could move to another apt and pay the transfer fee. She is a very unprofessional manager, and is an embarssment to peole that have to even waste their time talking to her. To my suprise the night before we moved out the guy who harassed me lived next door to his bestfriend, he was hitting on his bestfriends girlfriend and by the end of the night guns were pulled out and shots were fired! Michelle had told me that the guy that harassed me was harmless and wouldn't hurt a fly. Before you move here, think about how much your safety and your children's safety mean to you.Because of all the isses we were let out of our lease and we are extremly happy at our new apt.

From 2006 to present is like night and day. The apartment manager Michelle O. White does not give a care about anything, but the money in her pocket. Cut the cost so I can look good. They say there is security here. NOT! There is a courtsey gaurd who does nothing. Does not answer phone calls for help or assitance. When given leads to a problem, does nothing to fix the problem. I highly recommed a gun if you live here. They have repairs issues. There are no notice sent out when they are coming to do work or are doing work. Request for repairs are NOT handle in a timely manner. This apartment complex floods very badly. Management does nothing ot help fix the problem. It is not a city flood issue it is a complex drainage issue. Lately they have let whatever and whoever move in. There is known drug dealers living here and managment does nothing to get them out. Prostitution has become part of the nightly business. Sex at the pool area and dark spots of the complex on regular bases.

I really like it here... I have a room mate and the floor plan is perfect for us. It's a fairly quiet place and maintenance is very good and quick. I have never had bugs in my partment, and the office staff is awesome. What more can I say? I love it here is will be renewing my lease in September. :)

I lived at Altmonte for over 8 years never had a problem. The reason I moved was because I bought a house otherwsie I would still be there. The office staff has always been friendly and when requesting maintance it was always done before I got home from work. I know ther has been lots of tenants that live here longet then I have with no problems.<br>

i moved here after reading the reviews. even though almost all the reviews i read were bad i figured it couldn't be that bad because the actual apartment complex was gated and looked decent. boy was i way wrong. im a single mother of one and after living there for a month and a half my truck was broken into. the office management was so unhelpful. i felt unsafe living there. needless to say i had to break my lease and ended up paying almost $2,000 for breaking the lease. im glad to be out of there and hope this helps someone considering on moving there. don't do it unless you have a crappy car and if you are not afriad of getting robbed... oh and the area floods really bad...

Everywhere you go there's going to be some kinda ---- that goes on. Nobody's ever gonna be 100% safe. I've been a resident here for a short while and was notified by the office of auto-break ins. Good grief!!!<br>The only thing I can say is that anytime you live with a mix of people your gonna get mixed in with some animals. Get a license, get a gun and feel a little safer or just plain ole get a house. I'm just glad that the office was courteous enough to send us residents a notice. As for the rent, usually the higher the better for some. It's usually the lower income places where thugz seem to roam.

I've lived here two years and have found Altmonte to be quiet for the most part (you will always have loud cars or people anywhere) Sound like to me the review before is one of the properties surrounding our area. Every maintenance request I have had has been fixed and usually taken care of the very same day. I have no problem with bugs. Parking isnt a problem unless you get home really late. The office staff is usually friendly and the hours are good so that your needs are met. The only downside, and it isnt the apartments fault, is the flooding when really heavy rains fall, but I guess any complex or small street will have that problem when you have rains coming down at 4 inches an hour. I know some people who have lived here for quite a while and even though they may not be 100% in love with this place they're quite content to stay. I am one of them.

I moved in a few months ago. I wish I didn't. Twice since I've been here, it has flooded and I wasn't able to go to work. Heavy rains cause the parking lot to flood. I drive a truck and could get out. Even if you are able to get out of the complex, you will have a problem on Beamer and Fuqua. It floods really bad.
