Sound Insulation - A travesty
I have now stayed at two different apartments in this same complex, due to one of the members burning their apartment down and the resulting damage requiring me to move. I was quite satisfied with my apartment, so I thought moving into an identical one right down the hall would be no issue.
If you're renting here, be absolutely sure that you're in the half not facing Lombard. Be absolutely sure that your neighbors don't have socialization patterns that keep them talking throughout the night.... There is no sound insulation to speak of. I can hear murmurs of conversations and movies of an apartment that has two other apartments in between my unit and theirs. I was able to be blissfully ignorant of this in my first apartment, and in that one I would have rated this complex as the best one I've ever lived in. Now, it's middle-bottom.
If sound isn't an issue for you, you should have no problems here.

Hello, I'm sorry to hear that your experience in the other apartment has not been as great as in your first. If you are having issues with neighbors not adhering to quiet hours, please email the property manager and she will contact them directly.... Not all apartment complexes are soundproof and during the build of this property, the owners used the insulation that is up to code. There is an opportunity for you to transfer back to your original apartment after the repairs are completed should you wish to do so. Please contact the property manager for more information if you're interested in this option.
