DO NOT MOVE HERE! There are pro's and con's to everywhere you go, and I'm going to list both with extreme honesty. Please read this and seriously consider all of my con's before you even think about moving to this place. Let's start with con's: 1. There is absolutely NO insulation between these apartments. You can hear every single noise from your neighbors. Apartments all usually have horrible insulation, but these were EXTREMELY horrible. Every. single. day. multiple times a day I could hear my neighbors alarms go off, every phone call she made or received, as well as EVERYTHING she talked about. You can also here every time they shower, flush a toilet, open their door, or go in their closet. 2. The ventilation is horrible. You can smell absolutely every strong smell from every apartment. Every time someone cooks, especially with spices, your whole apartment fills up with the smell, and there's literally no escaping it. For example, one of our neighbors cooked cabbage one night ( we all know how disgusting that smell is) and the WHOLE building smelled horrible. Multiple neighbors called the office, and each other with complaints on how horrible it was to even be in your own "home." 3. The particular building we lived in (4478 Raleigh) is the grossest building you will ever be in. The building hallways permanently smell from all the cooking, and garbage people leave everywhere. The security door was broken for a few months, I put in a request to have it fixed, and then the next day someone broke it again. After that it was broken for another 6 months. Also the widow, the only window in the common area of the building, is always open and the screen is always broke, so i hope you enjoy bugs flying into the building and your apartment. Also outside the building expect to find dog poop everywhere. 4. You will have a bug problem. Ours was ants, and nothing was ever fixed or done about it even though you pay monthly for pest control. 5. Parking is horrible. There were days that we had to park blocks away from our building. We eventually paid to park in the parking lot ($15 a month) but then they towed our car. 6. Water. So when you live at Foxchase your water, sewer, trash, and pest control bills are through Foxchase with a utility service called Conservice. Now you would think that you would be charged for the water and sewer amount that you, in your individual apartment home, use. NOPE! You pay a ratio of what everyone uses. WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD I PAY FOR SOMEONE ELSE'S WATER USE!!! Our gallon usage (for two people) averaged about 6,500 gallons per month! That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever encountered at an apartment complex. Paying for someone else's water and sewage. 6.5 THE WATER WAS SHUT OFF WITHOUT NOTICE ALL THE TIME! The first year we were there, it was shut off once a month, for multiple hours, without any notice. The one time we received notice was from our neighbor because she was having the work done, so she knew it was going to be shut off. There are more cons, but unfortunately google has a limit and won't let me post everything. I had 9 major explained cons, so just know there is more. Pro's: 1. Location. It's honestly located in on of the perfect areas. You have the foxchase shopping center right down the road, which is very nice to walk to, and have availability to. You also have a walking park right next to the shopping center, a library down the road, and it's very close to 395N to get to Arlington/DC. 2. The maintenance people were some of the best. They were all helpful, fast, and extremely nice. One man in particular we had visit out apartment multiple times, I believe his name was Melvin (older gentleman, bald, has grown kids), and he was simply the best. If Melvin was working on your apartment, you knew things were going to be done correctly. You can also always plan to have a delightful conversation with him. I hope you read this and other reviews and truly sit down and think before you decide to live here. If you do stay away from 4478 R.
