4/5
These apartments are generally pretty nice, but the neighbors at the house next door have dogs that bark every single time we walk past their yard to get to our building. They also (the neighbors, not the dogs) screamed at my partner for standing with our dog in one of the parking spots in front of the apartments for literally less than five minutes waiting for me to get home to pick them up.
This is a more minor issue but I also wish it was a flat rate for utilities instead of changing wildly every month. I wouldn't lower my rating because of this because I know it isn't the apartments, it's the gas prices from Xcel, but this has led to utility bills anywhere from like $80 or so to almost $200 for a one bedroom, which makes it hard to budget for rent from each paycheck and causes a lot of stress waiting for that bill to show up. It's especially frustrating since we can't control the heat in our own apartments so I can't even just keep the thermostat at the lowest temperature to stop pipes freezing to try to lower the bill. I would rather pay for more than we use some months in order to have a flat rate of whatever the average is. Again, a fairly minor issue but one of the only problems I've had with living here.
