I love my apartment.(I live close to the office,I have stackable washer& dryer,microwave(which came with the apartment) & I have a good view of the pool) I've been here since December 2011 my lease ends July 2012. I haven't seen nor heard any physical altercations in these PARTICULAR apartments(the surrounding apartments are a different story) I would love to renew my lease but I work on the Southwest, so I'm trying to find a decent inexpensive apartment on that side, due to gas prices.(if anyone has any recommendations please comment.) However, I would highly recommend these apartments, if: 1) you're looking for an inexpensive yet fairly nice for the price. 2) quite at night 3) Nice Office workers(especially Ashley) 4) Maintenance who completes work orders within reasonable time frames.... The only problems I've had was when I first moved in the washer wasn't working and my ceiling fan upgrade hadn't been done; BUT once I informed management the next day I came home & they both were taken care of. SN: I speak to my neighbours but keep to myself. So if you are the kind of person who attracts drama, I'm sure you'll have problems wherever you go ... Conclusion: I would definitely move here again if my job places me on this side of town. :)

Prior to moving into our unit we were not "allowed" to do a walk through and much to our dismay the place was INFESTED with roaches. My wife immediately went to the office and they said the unit was just sprayed and the roaches were "looking for a place to die". The roaches were coming out of the vents, crawling on the walls, in the dishwasher and refrigerator. We have made numerous complaints to the office and we are looked at as if we brought the roaches with us. We moved into our unit in November and we are still having the same issues with the roaches. They are doing a VIPER treatment which is a 6 week process and the roaches are more frequent and bigger than before the treatment started. The only concession given to us was a credit towards water and trash...oh yeah, they offered to let us out of the lease so we could move out but would not assist in any of the moving expenses...NOT THE PLACE TO LIVE!...and people still speed through the parking lot and security spends more time sitting in their car and talking on cell phones than they do SECURING....DONT MOVE HERE!

I currently live here now .. i have been staying here since JULY and i can honestly say i love the apartments but the area is horrible. I honestly wish they can move the complex to a nicer area cause that would be just GREAT! these apartments dont deserve to be in the area like that !!.. well i really have some awesome neighbors they are very quiet! The only problem i ever had is when i first moved in i had NATS and a few roaches but when i called the office to have the Maintence man come out they fixed the problem i stay in the front so no one really bothers me.. but also the crack of the walls looks a lil bit moled but my apartment is very huge for one bed room and i have the stackable washer & dryer.. and its just very big for my first apartment for me and my child. I do agree with the speeding in the park in lot i honestly believe they do need speed bumps because cars be flying thru the park in lot and also the gates need to be fixed cause the gates sometimes dont open are half way open are sometimes dont work.. and the parking i dont like cause i stay in the front and i have to sometimes park all the way in the back and walk to the front .. but as far as the security i have lately been seeing them outside .. but i am renewing my lease here !1 i luv it

My 8 year old son was hit and ran over by a car on Dec. 18th 2011.. He was hit in the parking lot of the apartments. A car driving way to fast hit him then ran him over! There were NO security officers out there or did they come to see what happen until a week later! The apartment manager acted as if they had no knowledge of what was going on. There are NO speed bumps or a sign that states the diving miles. They don't have servalence camras at all either! Cars are always driving way to fast in the apartments and I feel that the apartment manager needs to take the proper precautions to keep accidents like this from happening again!

Lived here for a couple of months now and the staff is terrible, they are so rude, starting with the manager Julie, very unprofessional. I cant wait till my lease is up to move on out of here. They charge you for gas and theirs is nothing in the apartment of gas, They are very good at hanging nasty notes on everyones doors even though they dont check their books, obviously they are to busy doing this, instead of them fixing the front entrance gate, that is always open, I had a broken window in my apartment last month and had to fix it myself, someone just walked by and broke it. I had my car broken into. Very terrible would not recommend to move into, I honestly believe that they need to replace the manager, because she is not managing the property as it should be.

I have a lot to say and its worth reading. This link shows what the complex looks like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VuNgAYQeBw I have lived here for 4 years and I don't know why no one has posted a review on these apartments in the last 3 years. People only post when things go wrong, so its way too one sided. Greens point history is bad, but each complex is different. I did 3 months of research before moving here and I'm having a tough time finding a better place that is closer to work for this price. I pay $515 for 1 bedroom (631 sq ft) and I have a stackable w/d in the apt - that's hard to find. Even here, there are few apts that have that. There is a washateria 1 mile down the road. Never use apt w/d rooms in general, just go do your clothes at a place so you can watch them. There is a park nearby that is very active on the weekends. Full of families. A cement walking trail all the way around the nearby bayou with a bridge on both sides. I always see people exercising. I've never seen a more active community than this one, despite the surrounding apt complexes that I DON'T like. Don't live in these other nearby complexes. The others are awful. Personally, I am very picky (despite my budget). Each complex is very different and separate. People need to understand that. When I rarely hear of some crime occurring inside, it's usually because they are associated with the wrong people. I mind my own business. I smile and say "hi," walk by and no one bothers me or my stuff - simple. People are generally friendly. The staff will help you, but make friends with maintenance because they will stop and help you with something simple if you see them walking by. I do that all the time - its faster. I've had them fix stuff when I'm not there (no theft). If your price range is below $600 a month than you must be realistic. Do you want to be closer to work or pay more and live further away? All metropolitan cities have crime. Deal with it. Just use common sense. I'm one of the few white people here and it doesn't matter. I show respect and people usually get along. My lease will end this month and after months of research and scouting places further North (in/outside of Houston) I am not impressed. If I'm willing to spend $650-700 for a small apt and no w/d in unit, then yes, I could live in Spring, TX. Northwest Houston is safer. You can live in Cypress, TX too. The price goes up. You want better neighbors, you will pay for it. You should look for any apt complex that has less than 500 units total (big complex = big crime). This one has roughly 300 units. Parking - generally ok, if you worry about your car being scratched? park further away, its worth it. Noise - It's ok most of the time. Unless its a holiday - some people celebrate. That's a good thing. I do see the police show up sometimes, they are quiet. They get in and they get out. Grounds - clean, well kept. If you see a mess, tell maintenance, not the staff. Safety - use common sense, don't stroll around at night. Construction - thin walls? not really. my neighbors are decent, if not, then I report them to the staff, problem solved. Mainteance - friendly, but overworked, you have to keep on them. Staff - friendly and helpful, but sometimes the work orders are sent to maintenance too slowly, in general, always make friends with maintenance workers. Overall - Pretty decent. If you can easily afford more than $650 a month, than keep looking, if not, then save your money and cut your costs here. Your close to 2 major freeways. SAVE MONEY, live closer to your job (times are tough) Krogers 1 mile away, Walmart and Fiesta 5 miles away, metro bus stops everywhere. Greenspoint Mall will soon close down. no customers and no money (seriously) less people = less crime. METRO BUS STOPS all around you. Make friends with your neighbors. They will keep you in the loop and tell you if something happens nearby. Simple. Sometimes, the police hang out here hoping to catch anyone doing anything wrong, which I appreciate (because I'm not). 2 stories. 1. A beautiful blonde haired white woman that I knew lived here for 3 years, use to walk home late at night from work sometimes. She said it was quiet and she rarely saw anyone on greens rd at night. She had no problems and saw the police driving by every night. They even stopped her a couple of times while she was walking to see if she needed help. 2. A maintenance employee who became a friend of mine here, let me borrow his car (no, I will not tell you his name), because mine broke down - saved my job and basically my life. I dare you to beat that! Straight up miracle. I use to work security. - is the staff friendly? - talk to your potential neighbors, what do they say? - remember, search complexes with 500 units or less, otherwise, it will encourage more crime. I know from experience. - get 4 or more apt locators to work for you. They are free. (sign up online) - use apartmentratings.com all the time and check google revues (look for the gold stars near locations that you search on maps.google.com) - drive through the area at night before signing a lease. Is it safe? poorly lit? weird people hanging around? - pray about it (seriously, it can't hurt). Your home and peace of mind is worth the effort. Best of luck and happy hunting.

I live like 10 steps away from the office! I got it like that for a reason! because i was cautious about many things, robbery, no one to bother me, and whenever i needed anything i could just walk next door and their would be help. I truly like this appartments much better ones then the last ones i lived in. i havent had any problems they dont charge much and now this appartments are great to live in now. unlike back in the day. if you know what i mean? lOL! some ppl think i would stink cause of the bayou beside our appartments right next to the park? but i dont smell anything?? i love to live here. and have very comfortable neighbors. the only thing i dont like about this appartments is that they need to be more insulated! i hear everything next to me accross me beside me, behind me? ugh! annoying! but otherwise then that? everything is great!

I Have been living her for about 2 yrs just recently I got robbed in the middle of the day in the parking lot in the back, called security did not help at all called police came right away but didn't much help either. Till this day I am terrified to go outside or come home around six. Called office all they said is to write a letter what happened....And you know what they didn't do a damn thing... This is why I'm moving out to much crime and no security...

I lived here a few years ago and I lived next to the room with the pool pump. It flooded my apartment two times. They came to fix the problem, but distroyed some of my belongings while fixing the damages. They never offered to help replace anything. They moved me into a smaller apartment and charged me more money. I had my car broken into twice while living there and had rude neighbors. There is also no parking. The manager was rude and cared about noone.
