— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“First of all there is trash literally everywhere. People would dump their trash at my front door and when I reported it maintenance never came to clean it up, I had to do it myself. I would come home at night to no lights due to a default main breaker that they refused to replace. I had to use the breaker box to use my a/c and had no heat. It took them 3 weeks to fix my hot water. And on top of that my apartment was broken into twice in one month. All this happened in a matter of 4 months. And the whole time I was there the 4 security lights for the parking lot did not work. After the third person was shot and killed I said it was time to go. I paid my reletting fee and the manager still didn't want to let me out of my lease. Nobody should have to live in those conditions.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“These are the worst apartments. I've lived here for almost 2 years and have seen the changes in management. They don't come out to fix on the apartment when you ask, they are rude in the office, and there's trash and flies all over the complex. There's always shooting in some part and the so called security does nothing. They look like young kids just having fun. I have 3 kids and I don't feel safe at all. To make matters worse, I contracted bed bugs recently from a neighboring apartment and not only did they make me pay for the extermination, but they changed the dates twice, and felt like it was ok. I wasn't able to stay home for more than 2 weeks. I wouldn't send my worst enemy to these apartments.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“Upon first approach the staff seems friendly and helpful, then you move in. The staff describes Cullen Park Apartments as a gated family community, with luxurious apartments. There are certainly a lot of families here, and drug dealers, rapists, pedophiles, and violent criminals. I have to call the cops AT LEAST once a week. I constantly have people knocking on my door looking for drugs late at night. The courtesy patrol is a joke. They literally showed up one week late to a call about domestic abuse at 11:00pm and then came to my door because I called rather than the neighbors. The grounds are atrocious. People litter everywhere and will often leave broken glass in the street where their children play barefoot. People steal shopping carts from the local grocery store so often, the store hires someone to drive around the community to reacquire them each morning. It is not uncommon to see carts bike chained to stair wells. The amount of homeless animals around here is heartbreaking. Because the apartments do not allow pets, people hide them until they get caught and then just release them outside. The craftsmanship of the apartments is unskilled and often rushed. We've had to have several repairs done to our apartment from conditions that existed before we even moved in. The community itself is in a word, depressing. The staff seems poorly trained and unable to handle the needs of this community.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“WHAT A HORRIBLE PALCE TO LIVE THE YEAR WHEN HAD THIER WITH OUR NEW CHILDREN WERE TERRIBLE, THE OFFIE STAFF MANAGERS R NICE WOMEN BUT IT WAY TO MUCH GOING ON IN THOSE APTS FOR THEM TO HANDLE. SOOOOOOO HAPPY TO BE GONE FROM THERE IT WAS KSOMETHING EVERYDAY THERE FROM FIGHTS, FROM BREAK-INS, DAILY SHOOTING, KIDS GETTING KILLED, AND WACK SECURITY, THIS IS NO PLACE FOR ANYONE TO STAY AND LETTING NOT EVEN TALK ABOUT THE RAT PROBLEM THAT THEY HAVE AND PRETTY SURE AWAYS OF DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE-----STAY WAY----”

— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“im from galleria so after being laid off i came to cullen park thinking i still could live a nice high end life for lower rent..hell hell hell no...the truth of cullen park is the staff is low class with no standards and unable to understand what the proper way to treat ppl is and how to manage the property.. this apts need to be restaff, new management, new hpd patrol, new house keeping, and licenced workers. this is the worst nice lookn apt i have lived in. the rats roaches are commom and its as if they are home...too much volience to be a family style property. trash is always nasty and smell and the lake is black water not blue... leasing office's jena and rita are poor at they job and i will not be getting my 250 deposit back cuz they lied and said it was used as rent payment.. i saw a boy get shoot infront my window and too many kids fighting in gangs. the cops here where no where to be found when i called them either. i will be breaking my lease and moving...---- this ----!!!”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“I am a tenant here and just waiting out the end of my lease..the crime rate here is at a record high..i have been here for only a year and has been at lease 4 shootings that have left two dead and the other two wounded. There is no security on the premises. There are some tenants who party until 5 a.m and drug activity..robberies and when it's bought to managment she closes her eyes to whats going on..they dont carefully screen their move ins..If you have children..I certainly wouldnt advise you to chose this property..I regret it..daily..”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“Rats the size of cats are sure to pass your way if you stay near the dumpster area, mainly due to one trash bin assigned to the complex, and the lack of concern from the residents and lack of home training given to the kids responsible for taking the trash out and leaving it on the ground or dragging the bags so the trash litters the hallways. Cars speed through the parking lot despite the speed bumps. The office staff is okay but not concerned at all about any issues especially safety. There is no security so every night you feel like your being held a hostage in your own apartment because you have gang members, thugs, and dont forget about the resident cable hook up guy, who randomly knocks on the door to see if you need cable hooked up.Ugghhhh, I cant wait until my lease is up, I will never recommend this complex to any one..and might I add the increase in the rent, makes this apartment overpriced for the lack of service offered, lack of professionalism from the office staff, lack of security, lack of cleanliness, and rowdy neighbors....”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“This is the worst place to live they are rat,roach,nats,@ flys infested.The staff is very unconcerned about your need .They will lie about your move out to keep your deposit. Security is never in the right place at the right time. Rapes, Murder,@ thefts have taken place their stay away.This is coming from a good tenant.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“First starting w/ the staff, they start off friendly. When you move they have a bad attitude. They take 4ever to come fix your stuff. The crime is really bad there. The gates never work and the security dont do anything at all. I advise no one to stay there.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“Hello, i read your reviews and I AGREE to the 110th power. THANK GOD i don't stay in those apartments anymore. MANAGEMENT there is a ------- joke!! I forgot her name but i think if i can remeber correctly her name is Rita she is something else herself...The mailboxes stayed broke when i lived there you would have to pick up your mail at the Post Office on Cullen if you wanted your mail after working hard all dam day long...MANGEMENT TO SORRY TO CATCH THE DAM THEFT for at least 2 months....They stay smoking weed, in the pool after hours and the Security that was there when i lived there HARASSED the tenants if you ask me...what in the hell you bringing someone home at 2 in the mornning that is 18 years old and spending the night with his brother back home for and he is JUST sitting on the 2nd floor smoking a cigarette because your brother does not want any cigarette smoke in his house and the State of Texas does not have a dam curfew for folks 18 and up...they smoke weed in the hallways, get robbed and recently a young man was killed i saw on the news how sad where was SECURITY THEN when they should have been visible at that time of night when the very insentive crime happen to this young man.....also and under age teenager was raped and i had to read about the incident happening from this websitre at the time i lived over there do you think management said anything about this incident...don't no the details but if i was raped by anyone staying over there living as a resident or just a rapist i think a notice should go out about your afety espeacially to all FEMALES...my car was hit in the parking lot i charged that to the game cause i know no one would confess...all i have to say is DON'T MOVE TO THESE APARTMENTS...oh yeah and watch out for the snakes from that ------ --- pond they have management did not inform me off that either just seen it and reported it to them that is when the truth came out...and you probably can't get cable there the apartments did not pay there bill at the time Time Warner was still in Houston they are the ones that informed me that the Apartments did not par THERE BILL...LOL...MAYBE YOU CAN GET COMAST...LAMO!!

— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“This apartment complex is the worst of the worst it may look very nice on the outside with lush trees etc but do not be fooled this place is gang infested, if you visit the 4th west wing last elevator you will see a bullet hole on top and that should pretty much explain everything. the MGMT surprisingly hasnt repaired its hte first big no no you get when you see that bullet hole. More importantly kids are young and come at odd hours of hte night, if you go home odd hours of hte night this place has no security ..there is hardly ever any security only this one man on a bike who looks over all 4 wings of the complex. Its a hassle to live here as parking is forever a problem. Guests park their car in cullen oaks resident parking makes it a problem for those who live there as they have class in the morning and eevrybody just wants to go home and out of this unsafe parking lot. more over the laundry washers dont work 1 out of 3 dont work..holds everyone up. The maintanence can just walk inside your apartment they dont knock nothing..imagine if you were naked..seriously guys run away right now more importantly its just the ------ part of the university, its meant for ------ people alot of drug dealing in these apartments. if you walk in teh hallways at night you feel like someone is following you. when people walk very slwoly and look at you and when you look ahead they are tep steps closer than before and hten walk slowly.girls are hawked at..girls please wear clothes on campus run run run run never return warn everyone never move here”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“its a horrible place to live ii looks nice on the outside when your first viewing the grounds but things change rather quickly to a horrble mess. i say run!”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“I currently live in cullen park and the way i feel about the complex is that thaey are very slick they have things very nice when you visit but once you sign that lease you see a whole new side of that complex. They dont take the trash out regularly and they only have one trash dumpster. It is a feild bedhind the complex that attracts rats and they could caare less. What is the point of having a pool if you never let the tentants use it. I have never seen them open that pool. The managers in the front office are not professional at all and they are very rude.THey dont handle they business like they are suppose to. The drag on doing a lot of things but you better not drag on that rent. I remember one month i was two dollars short on my rent and they would not accept it because they said i didnt have all of it which meant that if i didnt pay it that day then i would have to pay all the late fees. If I know what i know now i would have never moved into that apartment complex. It is really just too ------ for me. I just cant wait till my lease is up .”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“I live in Cullen Park Apartments and what a big mistake that i have made by moving over here in these apartments. First I would like to start with the head of all problems and that is the Management. When I moved here I was happy but it started to get worst day by day, my AC unit went out during the winter months I remind you it cold outside and I am without heat for several days in my NEW apartment. My stove went out next on me among other things. I complain to Management they take there sweet time about fixing things among dealing with there jacked up ATTITUDE. The first group of folks (Management) there was stealing peoples rent you go and pay your rent but it is a notice on your door for non payment of rent ok they got that particular group out of there now we have another group in there which i really dislike they are not any better. Again you complain about the problems with drugs, people shooting, rodents/snakes here, maintenance coming in you apartment without notice, breaking into your mailboxes and you have to go to the post office to pick up your mail that lasted for 2 months without notice until one month later that we have a theft living or coming onto the property stealing. All of those problems but you pay rent to be safe and aware of all problems but a lot of times you are left in the dark about what goes on, on this property you here whats is going on through your neighbors before management will tell you and please don't let me start with there corporate office which really don't give a @&!! all they want is there RENT.They have Blue Moon Investigation over here that are now harassing looks like to me every black young male which some do need to be check BUT everybody that is young and a BLACK MALE does not sale drugs but you have to go through this ZERO TOLERANCE that they are having done over here at this present time with tenants getting ask 50 questions about why you are outside, where are you going, what is the apartment number, do you have drugs on you, where is your I.D. and you tell the law enforcement this and the very next day I have to go through all these same steps AGAIN. WHOMEVER is considering about moving over here STAY AWAY don't make the same bad decision that I have made please.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“I have lived at these apt's for a little over two years and on 7/10/08 my daughter was assaulted with a deadly weapon at these apts. Yes a 15 yrs assaulted by gang members hanging out I filled a report and then notified the mgrs of the complex I asked for a transfer or even out of my lease in fear of my life and my daughters she basically said what is it you want me to do I agree with the other bloggers if you value your life and your families please do not move here visit the property or any of that not only was she assaulted my apt was shot into all because we reported it to the police my daughter is afraid to even set foot in the parking lot I live her cause I simply have no choice at this time until I can find a different property but it has become evident that they do not care about the tenants and they are not trying to change the kids hanging out the gangs terrorizing the tenants the constant gun shots. don't move here it horrible trash lying around the man made pond looks like a trash heap no comfort no sleep the constantly post notes saying they need to view the apts why your not fixing anything so why do you need access. not only do you have to protect your family you need to protect your property.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“I've read the reviews from the previous commentators and those were 3 or 4 years ago. Nothing's changed, people. If anything, here for awhile it had had gotten progressively worse. People hanging out just the same, coming over here in the parking lot riding through in their SLABBED out cars, fighting, and shooting; DAMN...it was even starting to look more and more like HOOKER CENTRAL over here with these girls lookin' and dressin' like straight up TRAMPS!!! On the management side, I called about some of the things missing from my apartment as well and I too get nothing but ATTITUDES and as of late, they started doing these so-called "BANK INSPECTIONS", which is just an excuse for them to be nosey and see what's in your apartment and how you're livin'! They're not even trying resolve the matter with Comcast Cable so we can have some better cable TV service instead of forcing people to subscribe to that FUNKY old DISH NETWORK! In short, the first review written was a poor one and that was 2005. It's 2008! I guess Some Things Don't Ever Change.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“The apartment are HORRIBLE. I live in Cullen Park and if I knew what I knew now I would have not move there at ALL. I can't wait until my lease is over with!! I complain about what is going on to the property MANAGEMENT but they have and attitude with you and all you doing is reporting a problem that they need to fix or address the problem with a solution instead of getting a attitude with you. They have had at least 5 diffrent sets of people that have ran the front office and they need to get rid of them too. Hurry up 8 months for my lease to be over with so i can get the hell away from CULLEN PARK Apts.”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“It's scary over here. Please don't come. I will be in fear for your life if you move over here. I am waiting for my lease to end so that I can get myself and family out of here. Please, I beg of you stay away if you value your life. Stay away!”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“If you know anyone that live over here I wouldn’t even go visit...someone i know just moved over here...OMG they still have ditches in the area, sit right in the middle of the ------...they have giftedly all over the side of the apt, gangs hanging around, and it looks like a daycare out side....there is a man make pond that the kid think is a dumping ground for dirty pampers...they are loud as hell and just not safe”
— 4700 Wenda St · Houston“These apts. were at one time a nice place to call home. It's become more violent/becoming an unsafe place children to play and grow. You have more ignorance among the adults. The manager of these apts. has done nothing to control and/or improve the living conditions. At the end of 2005,these apts. will look/feel like all others in Southpark Area. (Southlawn Apts.,Misionary Village Apts. and of the # one of all Westly Square Apts.)I won't and will not recommend these apts. as a property for living.”
