Belmont is bomb

Great amenities, staff, and value. Would highly recommend to any students seeking housing. One of the closest developments to campus (~15 minute walk)

Great Place to Stay

I've really enjoyed my 1.5-year stay at the Belmont! The staff is great and helpful. I also found an apartment close to the main gate and in front of the lake. Belmont is conveniently located to the campus (about a 13 min walk away) and close to Krogers. A little pricey but a safe and comfortable place to stay.

Great for Duke Students

Since a lot of my classmates live at the Belmont, the neighborhood experience is great. I love the clubhouse here and the free amenities such as printing, coffee machine (great hot chocolate), and work space. The landscaping around the apartments is beautiful and makes it feel homely. The bus stop is right outside and you can catch buses to go almost anywhere from there.
One downside is the thinness of the walls. It's not that big a deal being a student because I'm not home much, but sometimes it can get disturbing (especially if you have the noisy kind of neighbor).
Apart from that everything gets a thumbs up from me. In particular, I am very pleased with the response time of the maintenance team. They get the work done ASAP and with a smile, so you don't have to worry about the functioning of the apartment.
Lastly, there's Erwin Plaza at a 5 minute walking distance from the back gate which has many eatery options like Chipotle, Noodles&Co. , Enzo's Pizza, Smash Burger, TGIF, Firehouse Subs, Dunkin Donuts, Baskin Robins and also has a nail and hair salon and spa!

The Belmont is an excellent place to live

I truly love the Belmont! It's a great location to campus, ninth street, and Kroger; it is where a lot of students in my program live (or near them); in the summer time the pool, walking trail around the pond, picnic tables, and gazebo are amazing (especially the pool!!); the gym is a little small but has exactly what I need for a good workout; maintenance is extremely quick and helpful; and everyone who works here is so friendly

Fuqua MMS review

My experience has been relatively pleasant. This is mainly due to the fact that a large number of other students from my program are staying at the Belmont and at the Heights (across the street). This proximity to classmates is the main reason i chose Belmont. Amenities are relatively clean and service is overall pretty good.
Downsides would be that the rent is relatively expensive and as with all appartments there will be some noise from neighbours. Amenities in the appartment (stove, sink, showers,...) are ok, but aren't brand new either. They all show some signs of previous usageand some parts could use replacement (the handle of our oven is broken on one side for example).

Erwin - LaSalle Reviews

430 reviews
It's been perfectly fine. People are nice but it's not much of a community, just a place where people live. Behind the Belmont which had a spate of robberies a few months back, but the Flats is further away from the main road and is better lit. So far no security incidents or concerns at the Flats. Affordability depends on which apartment complex you choose in the Erwin-LaSalle area. Wide range in rents, ranging from very expensive to very affordable depending on which one you pick.
The broader neighborhood's chief attribute is convenience to Duke. A lot of students live in the apartment complexes around here. It can be inconvenient sometimes getting to a supermarket from the neighborhood, though (eventually they're going to re-open a Harris Teeter on Hillsborough, which should mitigate this issue somewhat).
The neighborhood was perfectly fine when I started living there, but recently there have been some armed robberies in apartment buildings that are about a 10 minute walk away. However, I would like to say that I have not felt unsafe walking home at night and the security at Trinity is quite high. For example, you have to use a special key to get into the lobby (where a security guard sits after dark) and then you have to use the key to get in from the lobby to where the rooms are, and then again to get into your room. There are about 10 good restaurants within walking distance ranging from greek food to Mexican food to sushi so it's great for a quick dinner when you don't want to cook. There is also a hair salon and a manicure place, as well as a Walgreens pharmacy. We are very close to Duke Hospital and the bus systems are very accessible.
The apartments are close to campus and easily accessible through bus, bike, or walking if desired. There is a nearby Kroger that is a less than 5 min drive away just up LaSalle St. Overall, there are some older apartments further up the road that have had issues with crime in the past, but The Heights and other apartments around the area seemed to be insulated from those issues.
The food in the area is really accessible and I feel quite safe in the surrounding area, excluding the gas stations and bus stop. I've heard some odd things at night but never seen anything fishy and feel safe coming home at night. +Tons of dogs!
Lofts is right next to a few restaurants - TGIFridays, Chipotle, Enzo's, Noodles, Smash Burger, Sushi Love, etc. The Kroger grocery store is just a few minutes away, off of Lasalle. This is a quiet neighborhood.
Quiet neighbourhood. Conveniently located to West Campus and walking distance to Fuqua. Easy and healthy fast food options nearby. Close to food stores e.g. Kroger & Harris Teeter. Close to WaDuke trail.
Not the safest neighborhood and has little transit. There have been issues at other apartment complexes with safety, but Heights has been very safe. It is absolutely fine to walk around in the day here, but not at night. There are not very many restaurants or bars nearby, although downtown Durham is 10 minutes away.
