Heights...

The Heights is a trap. You end up living here because most of the class does and you pay more than Belmont (right across the street). Great for a social life, but management is terrible. Also, there are pointless gates for cars but not surrounding the entire property.

Convenient for the MMS program

It looks nice and is pretty new. A bunch of MMS students lived here and it is convenient to Duke. Pool is nice. Definitely overpriced for what you get. Utilities should be included. Management is pretty lackluster; they fix things pretty quickly, but outside of that, they aren't very attentive to our needs. Things break in the clubhouse often and they take a while to get fixed. They find ways to "punish" students who live here by closing the pool for no good reason. Some of the employees that work in the office can be rude. Gates break pretty often and take a while to get fixed. If you have the money, go for it. It's really nice to live with other MMS'ers.

Good location & security

It's close to the campus, bus station is right in front of the main gate and it's pretty safe

Service could be better, but the building is a good value

Assistants at leasing office-could be nicer with warmer service;
Gym-could have more facilities

Closer to campus

While the place is great with newer apartments and being close to campus, lacks on the social aspect for full time MBA students.

Value for money : Spacious and close to Fuqua

The apartment quality is very nice and the management is quick to respond to any maintenance needs . The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious. I love the fact that it is a 21+ community which helps keep away undergrads. The Duke bus comes right in front of the apartment. Fuqua is only a 10-15 minute walk. I really enjoy the convenience and peace that this place offers.

Nothing in walking distance, but nearby Duke

It's really about a mile away from anything else so walking isn't always an option. It's in a good location for going to class but not much else.

Erwin - LaSalle Reviews

Reviewed by Duke Sanford Student living at The Flats at The Exchange on Erwin
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.
Reviewed by Duke Med Student living at Chapel Tower Apartments
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).
Reviewed by Duke Med Student living at Trinity Commons at Erwin
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.
Reviewed by Fuqua School of Business Student living at The Heights at LaSalle
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.
Reviewed by Duke Pratt Student living at The Flats at The Exchange on Erwin
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!
Reviewed by Fuqua School of Business, MBA Student living at Lofts at Lakeview
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.
Reviewed by Student living at The Belmont Apartments
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.
Reviewed by Duke Sanford Student living at The Heights at LaSalle
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.
