    "Beware of moving into Plaza West Condos....changed the rules and now you get your garage, parallel parking behind it, and anything above that you are forced to park out on the Main Street while tons of empty spots sit inside complex waiting for visitors. (Which you only get 1 visitor pass) numerous cars have been vandalized and HOA does nothing about it..."
