Good Value For Price

Belmont is not luxury living, but it is safe, relatively affordably, very close to bus stop to campus (or into durham), and also within walking distance of Duke campus if you wish (~20 minutes). There is also some decent food options within walking distance. The gym is really quite decent given the size, though not comprehensive. The only thing missing would be barbells and a squat rack, but they really don't have the space.

Maintenance is very responsive--when our AC stopped working, we gave them a call and they had someone out within a few hours even though it was late at night. I've also submitted a number of online requests for smaller things (broken light, leaky faucet, etc) and each time it has been resolved within 1-3 days.

I was concerned when I first rented about safety issues, given events of last year, but I have always felt extremely safe here. Gate is well monitored, and the security car that patrols at night feels ever present. Having visited a number of other, similar apartments in the area (with apartment doors that open to outside, not inside), I feel that Belmont has the best security out of all of them.

There are occasionally crickets and roaches, but these seem to be coming from outside in, not to be an infestation.

Bang for your buck

The apartments are pretty old and initially upon moving in, will likely not be cleaned very thoroughly. Pretty good value in terms of cost per sq ft. Bathrooms are old looking but not the worst. Some units are all carpet in the living space so it's not the best but overall not the worst. Good amenities for the cost but gym doesn't have that many machines if you're big into lifting. Really convenient for med students because of the LaSalle Loop right outside the complex that takes you directly to TSCHE. Improved security and good lighting at night. Maintenance is pretty fast. You can definitely hear people walking around upstairs though so it's not great.

Good location for medical student

The Belmont is a decent apartment for the price and proximity to the graduate campus area. It's a 15-20 minute walk and the bus stop to campus is directly next to the apartment entrance. The place was very dusty but overall fairly clean with everything working. Maintenance has responded to all requests in a timely manner. Appliances are on the older side but still work fine. Safety hasn't been an issue since the security guards patrol all night.

subpar management but fairly priced

pros: 15-20 minute walk from campus (but you can also take the LL which is somewhat reliable). fair pricing, always ample parking, package pickup system is very straightforward. nice lake to walk around too. feels very secure and safe due to security surveillance and built-in security system. maintenance is also pretty timely at responding to requests. nice outdoor patio for every apartment.

cons: not so great management. infrastructure is kinda old and faulty (resulted in a plumbing incident when trying to install a bidet). cheap appliances. issues with security gate for the first month or so of living there. not as nicely maintained/not as great amenities as somewhere like trinity commons if you care about that. sound travels very easily (we can hear every footstep and stomp coming from our upstairs neighbors).

overall: i definitely dont regret living here but it might be nicer renting a house with classmates or something :P

Good value for money.

The Belmont is a good option, and probably the best value for money in town. However, facilities start to be a bit dated. The difference with newer complexes is huge. It could definitely use some updating.

Pretty good for close to campus!

Had some security problems last year, but haven't experienced anything this year. Very responsive management.

Great

I think my rent is lower than many of my friends apartment complexes. The reason why is because these apartments are a little older (appliances, etc.). However, I don't mind. I really like the outdoor spaces we have (a large pond, with a walking trail, etc.). Also can walk to school.

Can be a little sketchy sometimes but I sacrifice that for being close to the hospital. Usually try to avoid walking alone at night but have done it plenty of times after staying late in the hospital or having to get there at 4 AM and have never had any issues. A nice selection of food/drink options just down the street!
Very convenient to the hospital and campus (walking distance) and some chain restaurants with a few local spots, but overall not a very interesting neighborhood. Very bike-able to 9th st area, less so to downtown but still only about a 20-min bike ride
Very close to campus, extremely convenient to the hospital. Many students live in the complexes nearby. Some food options, but no real "neighborhood." The main attraction is that it's as close to living on campus as you can get off campus.
Great that the neighborhood is so close to the hospital which is great for me as a student. The apartment complex is close to a bus stop / a pretty loud street which sometimes has some noise but overall no major issues.
Mostly apartments. Conveniently located to Duke and hospitals, plenty of amenities on Hillsborough Road, though if you want good food you may need to drive a bit.
Not the safest place, but the apartment complex has a garage so you don't need to walk outside at night. So close to the medical school/convenient.
safe neighborhood. We haven't had much crime and Trinity Properties has an annual safety meeting to give helpful tips on safety for the area.
Close to campus, but few grocery store and dining options in the immediate area. Biggest perk is proximity and that's really it.
