    "Echo Farms = nice. Antiqua = horrible. Nothing unique or happy about it. Just waiting until we can move. Dirty apartments, unhelpful leasing office staff, cockroaches everywhere, awful neighbors, terrible laundromat, NOT actually dog friendly, everything breaks, crocodiles to worry about, trash everywhere, and unsafe at night with drivers nearly mowing you over or weirdos lurking about."

    "The apartment complex “Antiqua” says that they’re dog friendly, but they’re really NOT. It’s bad. Living there has been horrific for my dogs and myself. Don’t bother. Other than that, dogs are welcomed in the Echo Farms area!"
