You get what you pay for
This apartment complex is easily the closest to to Emory’s campus. This has significant pros and cons. For starters, you don’t have to pay to park. It is an easy bike or walk to campus. on the other hand, this apartment complex is filled with undergraduate students that have just discovered alcohol. I never would have noticed if my windows were thick enough to block out the sounds of the outside world. The apartments are old and worn. The management is making significant renovations to both the apartment and the amenities which include a small but functional gym (two pelotons and lots of weight equipment) and a decent sized pool. If you want to relive the college life, rent here.

Pretty good but could be better
Management could be better at responding to maintenance issues, but overall a safe and relatively quiet area.

Resident Review
The apartment is really spacious and has updated appliances. My biggest complaint is the management company's reaction to neighborhood disturbances, including a naked man on people's porches and the leasing office did nothing more than contact the police once. Luckily, I haven't been the one to experience this issue, but the response I received from the leasing office was unsettling. The other main issue I have is the leasing office doesn't notify residents when a package has been delivered to the leasing office, so you must monitor delivery updates to know whether to retrieve a package from the office. This is mainly frustrating when someone else has mailed you a package, and you don't have the tracking information and are unable to easily track its delivery date.

It's pretty good
Staff is very friendly. Parking is easy. Some units are updated, some aren't. Cheaper rate for non updated. Can walk to Goizueta in 25 minutes

Quiet community close to school
I have been really happy with the last 6 months at Highland Square. The apartment is spacious, high ceilings, standard appliances, and clean. The gym is basic, but does the trick so I don't have to spend money on a gym membership and it's super convenient. Best part is the distance to school - it's about 1.5 miles, easily walkable or bikeable which saves another $500 dollars on a parking pass every year. Overall, super happy with it. Management has been very quick to react if we need anything at all. Pool is nice, but I don't use it often. Walls are decently thick.
I don't have a pet, but there are little dog parks as well.

The perfect place for a grad student
After a bad experience during my first year, I moved into Highland Square apartments and couldn't be happier. The place was just upgraded and spotless upon move in, and the management / maintenance crew here is the best I've ever had. Perfect for my time at GBS!

Hit and miss
Although location is great and the complex is pretty secure, I think it is very poorly managed. Your packages will go missing, getting something repaired is close to an oddissey... for the money, Id live in Campus Crossings
