“How much was the deposit to move into the apartments”

“Haverstock gave me a home where I don't have to pay and can get my self together for my kids. It's not perfect, ---- houston ain't perfect but I'm here bcuz I need help and they are helping me. Most of the bad comes from people letting bad people visit. We need to fix ourselves to fix haverstock. It's not management it's us as a people. Go to the center and join the programs they got. It helps and there good people.”

“Haverstock Hill Apartments is a great area to be at . The staff is very helpful. An outfit that is available for the community. In the Paggi community center I received a TWIC card , financial aid on my lights and clothes and shoes. This center has been very uplifting in my life.”

“let me say this when moving anywhere you will always be at risk for crime ... i know these apartments have gotten a bad rep in the past and a lot has went on here horrible things in the past ... but its much better now there is a curfew which helps ... and if something out of the ordinary happens like maybe a fool acting out if the office catches wind of this they will shut it all the way down and those people involved will be put out period no questions asked police are here regularly the due random checks at the gate asking for i.d.'s and anyone that doesn't check out will be taken to jail ... with all this going on it makes things very livable and as far as people hanging out there are a few but its not to the point of where its a problem and ALSO as far as your kids safety your children are as safe as you allow them to be no matter where you are you should not just allow your children to roam freely to do as they please an a apartment complex they should only be outside when you are to watch them period its predators everywhere waiting for a slip up to do what they want to kids so watch them at all times period ive been here 6 months and its been fine ... maintenance fixes whatever needs to be fixed in a decent amount of time the mailbox area is locked after 6pm i mean if your approved over here its awesome while you get your ---- together to better just mind your business and watch your kids watch them at all times if they are playing outside dont let them roam they should stay in front of the house near the door and if you not able to watch them they shouldnt be allowed outside period but as far as Haverstock hills its what you make it its very livable and decent .”

“THE MANAGEMENT OVER HERE CLAIMS TO BE BY THE BOOK BUT THE ONES THAT NEED THE APARTMENTS THAT PAY THEIR RENT AND CAUSE NO TROUBLE THEY KICK THEM OUT BUT THE ONES WHO HAVE THEY BOYFRIENDS LIVING WITH THEM HANGING OUT SHOOTING,FIGHTING, SELLING DRUGS, RAPING AND KILLING ... THOSE THE ONES THAT THEY ARE FRIENDS WITH.. RIDICULOUS I SAY FIRE THE MAIN MANAGER PUT THE OTHER ONES ON DISCIPLINARY ACTION FOR 3 MONTHS AND GO APARTMENT TO APARTMENT AND CLEAN OUT THE RIFF RAFF..”

“These place is the absolute worst- I'm not speaking of the aesthetics of it but the sanitation of it. this management should be ashamed of themselves allow tenets to live in infested apartment. I have a family member who stays here and her son stays sick because of these living conditions. She has confronted the management multiple times and NOTHING has been done. I pray that she is able to move out of here very soon because this is no place to live and stay healthy. 3 of her neighbors where able to move to better complexes because they couldn't stand the roach infestation either.”

“Close theses apartments down please, I swear I'll make a petition to have people sign just to have support on making it happen because theses apartments are TRASH. Just yesterday an 8 year old girl was raped and killed now if that isn't enough to blow your mind then idk what else is. They should burn the ---- down too many people getting killed in one complex and AIDS running through there like water down the drain.”

“Want to apply for an apartment”

“IV STAYED THERE FOR A YEAR MY LEAST WAS UP SO I MOVED BUT I WASNT RECIVING ANY ENERGY CHECKS BUT THE STILL TOLD ME I HAD TO PAY THEM BACK .BUT THE FIRST DAY I MOVED BACK THERE THERE WAS A A COP CHASE BUT OTHER THEN THAT IT WAS OK JUST A COUPLE OF FIGHTS HERE AN THERE .BUT IF U STAY TO UR SELF U WOULD BE GOOD”

“iliveinhaverskockhill.myself and my daughter was at home watching tv went allof sudden we heard a big crash well some girls was out side fighting another girls push another throught my 16year old window. the window was broken out. i live on 212.00 income a month. icalled the police and was given a police report to take to office. the window was fixed and the poeple doing the fighting reported to the office and police they was responable. but as 1//23/2013 i was give i had to paid within 30 days. i dont have they money and feel very pressured about it”

“I have lived in Haverstock for 3years and I can honestly say its improved. When I first moved in the apartments somebody got killed at the front gate I was so scared I left for a month. Im from a small city where ive never seen shootings,killings,and dead bodies laying on side walks or in parking lots. I stay to myself im grown and im in my apartment before dark and never come out before day light. A few changes have been made with in the past year its not a 100% improvement but its a start less crime lately. Also better management can improve the complex because they worry about whos visiting who when work orders go without being handled for months!”

“I moved to Houston in 2008 to go to school. I was about to start my new job in September of 2008 when Hurricane Ike hit. Ike destroyed my place of employment and with no income coming in I had to move out my newly leased apartment. Basically, I was homeless. I did live with a family member which did not pan out and other so-called family members and friends turned their backs on my child and I. We lived in a shelter for three weeks and it was awful! We were housed with rapist, murders and pedophiles. A classmate told me about Haverstock and I came to the leasing office and talked to a manager and got an application. I was called three weeks later saying I was approved to come live there. I had never been on government assistance before and all this was new to me. I am a loner and I do not socialize with anyone here. No one has bothered my daughter and I. Haverstock is much better since 2008. There are no more hang outs and the government has installed new windows, doors and AC units. All this is better than any shelter and I will continue to live here until I can do better. I have a disabled daughter and I can not get any help with her. I do want to work. I am a licensed x-ray technician and all my skills are just going to waste. When you are down and out, you find out quickly who your real friends and family are! Overall, its not a bad place to live. I do not put my daughter and I in any situations that can be avoided.”

“I USED TO GO TO HAVERSTOCK WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, AND IT WAS ALOT OF SHOOTINGS BACK THEN I CAN ONLY IMAGIME HOW IT IS NOW, SO MUCH SIN EVERYWHERE NO PEACE NO WHERE ON THE PROPERTY NOT THE BACK THE FRONT OR THE MIDDLE. 1 PERSON I KNOW GOT AIDS FROM OVER THERE. ALL HOOD PPL COPS DONT EVEN LIKE TO GO OVER THERE. MAN I JUST WISH IT WERE SOMETHING WE COUKD DO FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHER PEOPLE THOUGH....INSTEAD OF TALKING ABOUT THEM THO WE CAN B PRAYING CUS THEY DYING N GOING TO HELL...BUT WARN OTHER PPL SO THEY DNT FALL FOR THE SAME THING.....PEACE B WITH YALL”

“The purpose of moving onto a hud property such as Haverstock Hills Apts. is to better yourself. Use your time here as a stepping stone, as an advantage to get ahead while paying little to no rent. Not as a permanent way of life. Get on your feet! Get a job, go to school, buy some furniture, purchase a car (with insurance), take a class on how to clean up, learn how to add some stability to your kids lives. Show and prove to your babies that yes we live in the "PROJECTS" but mama/daddy is doing something positive. Crime is everywhere, not just here it can't be avoided. Change your focus, pay attention to what "YOU" need to be doing with your own life, and everything else will become irrelevant. I've exprienced a few problems, but so what! Anywhere you live, you're gonna have issues!”

“I lived in Haverstock for 19 months. The inside of the apartments or decent considering my rent was free(or nearly free) without being on housing. Haverstock helped me get up on my feet. We had dishwashers and garbage disposals. The unit was a very nice size. I had a full size bed, crib and a bassinet(i kept from my son being a baby) However, they were selling lots of drugs, the people are alays outside, fighting, stealing and doing drugs. The apartments are fairly well compared to what I've seen people pay for. It's the people who live there, sell drugs, do drugs or let their family and friends come over and do it. I never had a problem my section was quiet(probably cause I had 1bedroom)I didnt let my son play outside much unless we were upstairs on balcony. But you must know because you know people don't mean you have to live or act like them. I kept my apartment clean. So some people say they raggedy its most likely cause they tear up they apartments or they listening to loes of other filthy bums. Parking was good, cause 85% of the people dont have cars, they dont work and have nothing to do but watch Maury and do drugs. It's normally never the people on the lease causing problems. No they have onsite police station the grounds were ok (not perfect) because nasty people throw trash down, purposely.”

“well i was just a person staying in the stock tell something happen out side of the apts and i was wrongly put out my apt about what someone else had something bad to say about what was going on. now me and my small child is looking for a new place to stay after one of the new windows came down on top of my baby head. they did nothing and had nothing to say about what happen but you have to pay for the window. i dont think the staff really care about the safty of the people that has to stay over there. i stayed in these apts for two years and never been in any type of stuff. but they told me i had to move they need to give every one some were else to stay and put them apts to the ground. then start over on the real. they need new staff an every thing else.”

“my wife and I have been living here for a year now and I must admit it is surprisingly pleasant. maintainance has been prompt, the staff is friendly and willing to help with anything, and the complex is pretty quiet. They say cheap rent attracts troublemakers but that is not the case at haverstock. I definitely plan on renewing my lease and raising a family here”

“My friend was murdered here and I know of several other killings and two rapes. Also, the staff seem like they are on dope themselves, they will steal you blind. Do NOT pay your rent in cash!! Worst getto I ever lived in!”

“You might want to do a search on the Houston Chronicle site for Haverstock Hills Apartments before deciding to move in here. From the article dated 10/4/10: "Houston drug traffickers and gang members call it "Da Stock," as in, "Let's go to Da Stock and get some rock." Police and prosecutors have another name for Haverstock Hills Apartments they say the 700-unit hub for drugs, including crack cocaine, or "rock," is one of the most dangerous apartment complexes in Harris County. "It's too dangerous, even, to go in and buy drugs," said Harris County sheriff's Lt. Jesse Incencio. "You'll get robbed."" ------------------------------------------------ "Lawmen responded to more than 3,000 calls at the property last year, from drug violations to shootings, robberies and prostitution, Incencio said." That's equal to 8 calls per day, everyday of the year...”

“This place is so awful it's unreal. I've never lived in such a place - Thank God! But I was a Early Childhood specialist and had to visit these apartments several times. I was afraid for my life. So many questionable people hanging out during the day. Why don't these MEN have jobs???? One of the parents told me they don't let their child go outside except to go to the car. I don't blame her. Smoking, drug activity, poor living conditions, danger - all contribute to this place being one of the worst ghettos I've ever seen. If this is all you can afford, please please please work hard and do whatever you can to get out of this place if you have children. If you are one of the offenders, stay there please. Don't spread your terror to nicer communities.”

“I can't say enough good things about Haverstock Hill Apartments. My apartment is really big and I like the location. A few months ago we all got new Air Conditioners and refrigerators and windows and doors. They are also building a new Resource Center at the apartments. The people in the resource center are great. They helped me write my resume and look for a job. My kids go there for the Boy Scouts and my daughter goes to the jewels Program, where they help teach her to be a good person. I am a single parent and I wouldn't be doing as good as what I am without the help of the people at Haverstock.”
