Haven’t even started living here and things are already bad with the roommate matching. After signing the lease, you have to download an app that’s basically like tinder for finding roomates. I matched with a girl that’s really cool and we even hung out in person. She’s a renewal and I even visited her apartment. I really saw myself living there as her roommate. So we quickly linked on the app. I even managed to get one other person in the group. Recently, we got our rooming assignments and all 3 of us have random roommates. One of us has roommates with the opposite gender which is extremely uncomfortable for a young woman. I am extremely disappointed because I literally called a while ago to make sure I would have my desired roommates and was told as long as we were linked on the app it should be fine. That did not happen and now I will be living with complete strangers when I had gotten my hopes up so high. There is a room change request but I highly doubt they’ll even try to accommodate. This is a greedy complex that just cares about filling all their units, so they’ll move people around to do so. They’ll even place opposite gender roommates. They don’t care about the comfort of their residents at ALL.

Don’t live here. The other reviews about the property's condition are all true. I’m regretting signing and just waiting for my lease to end. The place is crumbling; just today, my entire shelf in the closet ripped out of the wall. My dryer has broken 2-3 times now, with this most recent time being a motor issue. The maintenance here is slow, and it can take days for an issue to be addressed. I just had a maintenance guy who was supposed to be on call for emergency maintenance due to an electrical problem tell me he couldn't come because his bike wasn’t charged. Then he lied to my face, saying he came by around 10, knocked on the door when I was awake in the living room waiting for him, and he never showed. I had to call again to get him to come by. Just because it’s somewhat close to campus doesn’t mean it’s worth it. Find someplace newer, where the walls aren’t falling apart, and the maintenance is done properly.

False advertising and poor management. The pool has been closed since the beginning of February. During my entire lease, I have only been able to use it once, shortly after moving in. Despite this, the pool is still advertised as one of the property’s amenities. In April, management sent an email blaming new Alachua County inspection requirements and a backlog of pool vendors. At first, that sounded reasonable. But it’s now been over five months, and the pool is still closed with no clear timeline for reopening. I understand that things can take time, but we’re talking about a swimming pool, not a major construction project. It’s hard to understand how it can take this long just to bring a pool into compliance. Meanwhile, residents continue paying for an amenity that has been unavailable for most of the year, with no rent credit or other compensation offered. The lack of urgency, accountability, and transparency has been very disappointing. If access to a pool is one of the reasons you’re considering living here, be aware that advertised amenities may not actually be available.

It is alright. The amenities and fixtures have nontrivial wear; service requests are hit-or-miss (it took numerous requests to fix our washing machine); gym is okay for simple workouts; lighting in the kitchen counter and individual rooms is quite dim; ventilation is not great, as smoke persists for a while even when the fan is on. Package pickup and front office personnel are good; it sometimes takes multiple attempts for the badge readers to work. elevators are relatively slow, as is the campus communities website.

Hidden fees EVERYWHERE! The place is okay to live, and although the cost of living doesn’t seem like a lot considering how close it is to the university (25-minute walk), the overall cost ends up being much higher. The gym is good. Maintenance, however, doesn’t really help that much. Once you file a maintenance request, they come to “fix” it within 2–3 days, but it usually breaks again within the week. We spent the whole semester basically without a dryer or washer. They came FIVE times to fix them until they finally replaced them, and even then, they stopped working twice within the same month. That makes a total of SEVEN maintenance requests in a 5-month period. That means every two and a half weeks we had to submit a maintenance request that would take up to 5 days to be fixed! Imagine that in a 4-person apartment. 2nd Avenue is wasted potential for what could be one of the best residences at the University of Florida. I DO NOT recommend it at all! You’ll end up broke and without clean clothes!
