I've lived here since January and generally enjoyed my time here. There was some unpleasantness in the initial move-in (the heat was broken when we moved in... during the coldest winter in 30 years... Probably should have been checked) but since then it's been fine. The office representatives are often VERY busy and I usually have to wait behind other people before I get help, but they're usually friendly and helpful. Maintenance is friendly and responsive to issues. The grounds are the best part. A creek flows through the center of the property and there is a copse of woods behind the complex. I see a lot of wildlife on the property, some of it uncommon for the suburbs. Deer, great-blue herons, green herons, great egrets and common mergansers have been sighted in the past. Bats, nuthatches, chickadees, blue jays, woodchucks, and several species of squirrel are all common. Hard to believe this is all off 12 mile! The maintenance crew does a good job keeping the grounds clean, despite several severe summer storms in 2014. One downed several trees, all of which were cleaned up within 3 days. Thoughtless residents will leave spilled garbage bags in the parking lot (they fall off the trunk of their car on the way to the dumpster) and the crew will always clean it up the same day. Other reviews have mentioned issues with crime. I have seen one car on blocks before, but only one. All of the apartment complexes off 12 Mile are crime magnets, unfortunately, because crooks can easily hop on the interstate or Northeastern or Telegraph and be gone before the cops get called. But I regularly go for walks around the complex and have never felt unsafe, nor do I excessively worry about my property. Just be alert, park your car as close to buildings as possible, lock up, etc. So yeah, it's good. You can definitely do much worse for apartments, and you can DEFINITELY do much worse for an apartment off 12 Mile. I'd recommend it.

I was looking for an apartment and the lady in the leasing office didn't talk to me nicely. She acted like she is bored and said that she didn't have any available apartments even though I saw many on their website. I experienced discrimination issue where I felt uncomfortable there. I wish I catched the lady's name! I told all my friends my story, so they don't have this bad experience, even though it was their first choice.

The quality of this property has really gone down especially in the winter time they do not take care of the ice and snow on a consistent basis which causes cars 2 slip and slide throughout the apartment community

Worst place I've ever lived in my life. Over the past 3-4 months more than 5 vehicles including mine have had the tires and wheels completely taken off the cars. This place is totally unsafe. Management will not help me out in any way with the insurance deductible. And they are not doing anything to stop this except calling the cops and saying tough crap.

I have lived here less than a week, and my tires and rims were stolen in the parking lot of the Lakes Apartments in Southfield, Michigan. My car was placed on bricks, while it was parked in the center of the complex. A number of helpful tenants advised the management office that there was a car placed on bricks with a few tires stolen in the parking lot, with the remaining tires halfway off, and lug nuts scattered on the ground. The management office did not try to contact me, nor did the do their due diligence to contact the police. I was advised by a representative in the management office that it's up to the tenant to call the police, they are not responsible even if it's obvious that a crime has been committed. I inquired as to why I was not contacted since my license plate number was on file. The representative stated that the information was not listed in the system, and they would have to look through each file to find out who the car belonged to. Sorry for the inconvenience, but isn't that part of your job as the property management company to report a crime that takes place on the property. I was advised that everyone working in the office yesterday was aware of the crime, and the situation, and it was the talk of the complex.Everyone was in the office gossiping, but nobody felt the need to report the obvious crime. I guess nobody cared enough to inform the tenant, or at least contact the police, and attempt to find out who owned the car. What if this had been an attempted car jacking, abduction,or if I was in my apartment assaulted or dead.I guess the management company is only concerned about rental payments and not the citizens of the lakes community. I had no idea my tires and rims had been stolen, my car remaining on bricks until after 7pm when my roommate called me. I have contacted the property manager, and I have had no response, which is not a surprise considering their previous negligence.
