6416 York Meadows, Houston, TX, 77084

I have lived here 20 days the longest 20 days of my life it seems. In this I have lived without hot water for 8 days on two occasions once for 2 days then for 6. My teenage son was assaulted by a girl who doesn't live here, there was a shooting 2 days after moving in my car was stolen and totaled, my son had a gun pulled on him at the bus stop by some crazy boyfriend of a minor female who rides the bus, dog feces, glass, rusty nails protruding from the exterior patios, neighbors below blasting music and the list goes on. I have given my notice to move. I can't live like this and quite frankly nobody deserves to. Do yourself a favor, don't move here. I couldn't find any recent reviews so I figured it was ok man was I wrong ????. I will compliment the office staff as they are friendly.

This place is bad and I mean real bad lets start with the basics first roaches , vandalism , theft, pool is full of garbage water is black, side walks are trip hazards ,graffiti, apartment manager lies straight to your face. For gods sake don't go out after dark....

Do not move into these apartments, they are horrible. The place is falling apart and they do not care about the residents.

News article at Khou posted January 2, 2013. Police are investigating a shooting that left a woman dead and sent another man to the hospital in serious condition Wednesday afternoon in northwest Harris County. A sergeant with the Harris County Sheriff s Office said the shooting occurred at 12:30 p.m. on the first floor of the Meadow Creek Apartments in the 6400 block of York Meadows. When deputies arrived, they found a man by the front door of an apartment with several gunshot wounds and the body of a woman shot several times inside the unit. http://www.khou.com/news/crime/Shooting-at-apartment-complex-leaves-one-dead-another-in-serious-condition--185482562.html

I don't even know where to begin... These apartments are absolutely horrible. First of all, the ROACHES are out of control! They would not let me in the apartment before my move-in date to bomb and clean, but they let me bring the bombs and had the maintenance guy set them off for me. When I first entered my apartment there were dead roaches EVERYWHERE! I had an exterminator come out to spray so I would know that it was done properly. It lasted about 5 months and then the roaches came back full force. I made numerous requests to the office to have pest control come out (as I pay a monthly pest control fee), but it took them 2 months just for someone to show up. When they finally came to spray, they just sprayed the kitchen around the baseboards (which did absolutely nothing for my problem). My a/c went out in the middle of the summer and after numerous phone calls to the office and waiting a week, I had a friend come fix it for me. The grounds are not kept up at all. The whole back section of the apartments are boarded up. The fence is damaged all around the property. The gate does not work. Most the lights on the property are out. Out of the 4 units on my side of the building, my apartment is the only one occupied. Maintenance has not even been by to clean out the other units from when those residents moved out (the guy downstairs moved out 8 months ago). Since I have been here 2 of my guests have had their cars towed, my car and 2 guests of mine have had our cars broken into, 2 people were shot, the cops are always here on some type of call, numerous drug activities take place, and the other residents let there children run wild. The kids are horrible and unsupervised. They destroy the property for fun and nobody says or does anything about it. The laundry facilities are absolutely disgusting, the pool is hardly ever open and is not kept up well, the "tennis courts" are non-existent, and the mailboxes are always broken. Also, the apartments use a 3rd party provider to install cable, so if you want cable you can only get satellite, you cannot take advantage of any deals the providing company is offering at the time, and you have to pay extra for the 3rd party to come install it. I moved in here knowing these were not the best apartments in the area but I needed to save money and they were the cheapest, but I end up paying about $50 to $70 extra a month in hidden fees (drainage, pest control, sewer, trash, water, and a service fee) and due to poor instillation and horrible, broken, loose single-paned windows my electricity is ridiculous. The last complaint I will make is about the office. There is no drop box for payments and the office is never open when it is supposed to be. They are always opening late, taking long lunches, and closing hours early. The staff does not care about their residents, their safety, or the upkeep of the grounds and units. The answering service that is available while the office is closed is completely useless. They do not have access to resident information. They cannot get a hold of the staff when they are not in the office and it does not seem like anything is done with messages that are left. They don't even have the number to the towing company that tows about 3 cars a night out of the parking lot. My lease is finally coming to an end and I cannot wait to get out of here! Take my advice and don't even consider these apartments. Spend an extra $100 (that you will end up spending here anyways with the hidden fees) and go somewhere else. The only reason I could see for someone to move in here would be if they were illegal immigrants or drug dealers.
