Great Apartment so Far

I initially chose Lofts at Lakeview due to its proximity to campus and the fact that it has 1 bathroom for each bedroom. It is the closest apartment complex to campus and there are about 10 restaurants within a 3 minute walk including Chipotle, Dunkin Donuts, Indian, Firehouse Subs, seafood, Mediterranean, Japanese, Korean, wings, etc. So if you don't have a car, you don't need to worry. The gym and the lobby is very nice. Also, I haven't felt unsafe once here. One downside is that electricity, water, wifi, and cable aren't included in the rent, and the rent is still pricey (~$1000 per person).

overpriced, terrible mgmt

The space is large, so that drew me in, however it is not worth all the maintenance problems. My windows leak, shower doesn't drain, and any other problems that arise...are not fixed promptly. I also don't get enough hot water in the winter.
All amenities have been shut down due to Covid despite all other apt complexes in the area restarting them.
Mgmt is very slow and not helpful.
Not worth living here.

Lofts

Leasing office was slow to approve lease, which was nerve-wracking when coming from across the country (though this may have been due to COVID). However, we had a maintenance emergency that required us switching units, which they were very responsive to and took good care of us.

Complex is pet friendly, with only a 1-time deposit required. Convenient location for walking to school + close to grocery stores on Hillsborough. Plenty of parking available. Apartment layouts and construction are modern and fashionable. Avoid lower floors, as roaches can come in from the garage areas. Decent value for the price.

Good for First Year

15 minute walk to campus is very ideal. Many first year med students live here or at nearby apartment complexes, making it easier to meet people. One caveat is that management is poor and the location, besides proximity to school, is not great.

apartment itself is nice and spacious, close to campus and a good value but would be nicer if the units had balconies. the building amenities are just ok. the parking garage has been broken into several times. the recycling situation is a major hassle. maintenance is very responsive to issues.

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.
