    "It’s very easy to get in and out of the neighborhood. White Oak rd can be busy closer to 13 but this far back is great. Very close to Route 1 and lots of back road to drive to clear your mind when needed. Also still close to shopping, main road and highways, and Dover AFB."

    "I lived in the neighborhood almost 3 years and it is very quiet. Be wary, they over charge for apartments in the spring and summer. I started payimg 975 a month for a 1 bed 1 bath in summer, come February they were offering 1 beds for 700-800. I am now ony 3rd lease and am only paying under 1060 because i agreed to a 15 month lease. There are people staying in 2 & 3 bed room apartments for less than what i am paying.They also increase rent every year. Also, when they say a room has been renovated, that just means they updated it from 1950's appliances to 1970's appliances. There is nothing renovated about my apartment, though they claim it is. It looks just like one of those cheap hotels."
