Metro on 5th

I have lived here for 4 years and what started out good has gone downhill fast. Since new management has taken over, every decision has been bad. Most recently with the removal of close mailboxes in the buildings where people live and moving them to be by the main office for zero reason. Making maintenance requests are treated as vague suggestions and often met with "that's just how it is." If you want to pay above average rent for St. Charles, you are best doing it somewhere else. Maybe... somewhere with effective management that can solve more problems than it causes. Read More

I’ve been living at metro for 7 months so far and I love it here. I’m not sure about the reviews saying it’s unsafe at night. I’ve never had any issues nor have any of my neighbors. I asked a few of them upon moving in. I have a townhouse and it’s beautiful and quiet. The grounds are kept nice and maintenance is quick to respond. I once had to call to have my door opened as it was frozen shut. He came literally 5 minutes later. It’s a very safe place. There have been a couple of times where I... accidentally left my door unlocked overnight while I went to work, nothing happened. My car has never been bothered and nor has any of my neighbor’s cars. It is expensive here but otherwise it’s a great place to live! Read More

if you love moldy walls, smelly carpet they refuse to clean, and having your car broken into regularly (sometimes even stolen!), then this is the place for you.

Management is a joke, the ‘clubhouse’ is unwelcoming, smoking is allowed so get used to it, a lot of crime and unsafe at night.

My daughter applied here and paid the 50 dollar application fee and the 400 dollar administrative fee which she was told would get back if denied. She was denied in less than half hour and after many calls they finally sent her 250 of the 400 administrative fee and again after many calls was told there was an error and they would send 150 check. Been 3 weeks and after several calls they keep telling her should receive it in a few days. This is a money making scheme this place runs. BEWARE you... will not get your money back. Read More
