Location is good but the building is old

The location is more than excellent, and that it.

The building is old and has numerous issues that require your attention and maintenance requests. The electricity bill will be high due to the building's low efficiency. Additionally, it is not secure, and there have been instances of theft.

Also, the management staff are not professional.

The Avery

This is a really nice apartment close to campus. We decided to live here because it was just as nice as The Village apartments, but it was cheaper.

Great place to live for single or couple

I completed the entire process of applying for this apartment via email. Of course, you can also make an appointment to visit. However, since I had a friend, I just asked about the fees and services. The whole process was very smooth, and the staff was very friendly. Check-in was also very quick on the day of arrival. Any questions I had were answered very quickly, and the problem was solved. Repairs can be reported online, and a staff member will be there the next day to help resolve them.

The avary on southwestern

I totally like this apartment. People lived there are friendly and kind, the environment is so good and it is closed to my university.

Very nice, but somewhat pricey

The Avery really has some of the nicest amenities of comparable apartments in the area and really is relatively affordable. However, if you are looking for a cheaper apartment there are certainly cheaper options. Overall, its a great community and really is a strong value for what you pay.

Overall, NICE, but parking can SUCK.

So far, its been decent living at The Avery. Only complaints would be the loud SMU students that come home late Friday and Saturday nights & worst of all, parking can be a big issue (at least for me). I've come home late to find NOT A SINGLE spot available anywhere near my building. I don't know about anyone else, but the first thing I want to do when I get home late is crawl in bed, not walk a mile to get to it. On a more positive note, the management is great, as is the Care's team that throws fun community events for residents.

Vickery Meadow Reviews

Vickery Meadow probably wouldn't have been our first choice because it can feel claustrophobic due to the density of apartments. However, our little corner has almost none of this feel. Holly Glen is tucked in a corner and backed by a forest. We're not comfortable with my wife walking alone apart from the SoPac (and then we try to shoot for times when it's busy). That said, we feel generally safe.
I honestly didn’t recognize this neighborhood name until I looked it up. Outside of the Village, the area doesn’t have much of an identity. Retail options nearby are nice and restaurants are good, but there isn’t much of a social scene. You’ll want to head down to lower Greenville, uptown, oak lawn, or deep ellum for bars and things to do. All of those are a short, cheap uber away so it isn’t a big deal.
While the Village feels like an escape from the city, Greenville ave. is right there, giving easy access to restaurants, grocery stores, and other kinds of shopping. Dallas proper is only about twenty minutes away by car, and DART is also nearby and easy to use. I have a 5-10 minute commute to campus most days, and if I didn't want to drive, the SMU express has several stops in the Village, making it easy to take (free!) public transportation.
I like the neighborhood. It is quiet and pedestrian friendly. It is great if you are a jogger or have a dog! There are sidewalks, a walking/running path, and a dog park across the street and accessible to anyone living in the Village.
I also like that there are three different grocery stores within a two-mile radius and many eateries off Greenville.
The entire Village property is beautiful and feels pretty safe; however, the surrounding areas are somewhat rundown and don't feel safe. I'm definitely glad that my complex is gated but would feel safer with more restricted access to the Village and apartment buildings.
Everyone in the neighborhood minds their business, and it is fairly quiet. This neighborhood is also a great place to meet up with friends since they have a number of bars and restaurants to choose from.
Easy to get around, shop, etc. Good grocery stores and gas stations nearby. Quick access to 75. Mostly chain restaurants but clean and high quality. Easy to get to SMU, North Park.
If your neighbors are students then it might be fine. If your neighbors are those who stay at home all the time and living on government subsidies, then it won't be pleasant.
