Worst Apartment; Do not move here

4 management rating Reviewed by on

Mice, roaches, spiders. Literally worst experience ever, please never move here. Yes it cheap but that's about it. The "gym" has maybe one working treadmill on a good day, the gates are pretty much always broken, if you drive in at night you will literally see hordes of roaches just teeming across the parking lot. For the love of God do not move here! Worst experience of my life. 0 stars, would not even recommend to my worst enemy.

Generally good

8 management rating Reviewed by on

Reasonable rent. Decent properties and facilities. The unit configuration/layout is generally good. The buildings are relatively old. Surrounded by the woods so awesome environment, but could be bothered by occasional bug/pest issues. The neighborhood is generally safe. Driving distance to Duke Law.

Decent and affordable

5 management rating Reviewed by on

The property is an apartment complex with upwards of 20 buildings. It is quiet forested and can feel pretty quiet. There are a lot of families and other students that live here. The units are noticeably old and the amenities aren't super nice but it is expected given the price and how large each unit is.

So spacious and good location

7 management rating Reviewed by on

I have enjoyed living here so far. My apartment is huge and I think it is a good value for the price I am paying. The amenities are decent and functional. The area is pretty quiet and close to many shops and restaurants. The only downside is that the exterior of the buildings are not kept up with frequently, and security is quite lax.

Duke Forest Student

The apartment locates in the duke forest, providing a safe and quiet environment. Sam's Club and Super Target are very near, which makes the shopping very convenient.

Not a great experience, but not completely terrible. I do not spend much time at my apartment which is good but if I had I probably wouldn't like it as much. It does have amenities like a pool and a small gym but I don't care for those much.

Great, affordable place

8 management rating Reviewed by on

University Ridge is extremely affordable and the management is very responsive. The units are older but are slowly being renovated. Maintenance is great at fulfilling requests and up keeping the units. The complex is quiet but in a great location. I’m 6 minutes from the law school and 10 from downtown.

Solid place to live

7 management rating Reviewed by on

It’s a good place at the current price, but there are better places elsewhere, as they are going up on rent. Very close to campus a short 10 minute drive. Walls are kind of thin. During the first few months had issues with bugs, but that’s expected since it is surrounded by a lot of trees. Winter and spring months this has not been an issue

Decent value, near campus

8 building rating Reviewed by on

The apartment is affordable compared to where my classmates live. While it's a short drive from campus, it's a bit further from downtown than some other complexes that are popular with Duke students.

Good Place to Live

6 management rating Reviewed by on

Nice apartment. Generally quiet area, about 3 miles south of Sanford and 15 minutes from downtown Durham. If you live hear, you’ll need a car. The new management company is not as good as the old one, but they are still somewhat helpful. They are raising the rent significantly (as with other places across the country) for the next year.

Overall good space

5 management rating Reviewed by on

I love my apartment and I like that it isn't in the heart of the downtown, which probably made the price better. The best thing about this place is the size of the space with the price. Most months I have paid under $600/mo living in a 2bd 2br apartment with my roommate. It is exactly the space I have wanted and I will miss it when I leave.

The management is OK. There have been some issues that have come up such as the pool being closed during part of the summer and one of the entry gates not working. I may attribute some of their mistakes to the fact that they took over about midway through my lease. Hopefully they have learned from that.

I feel safe in this apartment complex and would recommend it. My pricing situation, however, seems to be changing and will be different for the next renter. That is a shame because I wish someone else could enjoy this space like I have near that affordable price. It will still be affordable but just not the same.

Good not Great

6 management rating Reviewed by on

Convenient location for Duke's West Campus. Also very close to retail (Target, Dollar Tree, Sam's Club, Petco). Has a pool and tennis courts but I don't use either. Front office will hold packages in a locked mail room except for packages delivered by Amazon, which are left in front of your door. A mixture of students and families. Has two gated entrances except one of the gates is frequently broken/inaccessible. You have to pay a mandatory fee for "valet trash pickup" but this service is unreliable. There are loud neighbors around my building and the walls are thin. Management staff seem to change frequently - in the ~8 months I've lived here, they've cycled through several different employees in the front office, so that doesn't feel very consistent. There are roaches in the summer but that seems to be the case with most apartments and homes in Durham.

Manor at Buckhead

Nice place, definitely good for the price. A little further out, but easy access to the highway. Complex is older, but managed pretty well.
