Apartment Review for The Streams Apartments - Fullerton, CA

(Feb 2006): I live at The Streams while I rent out an investment property. I've lived here "temporarily" for over a year and have to agree with most of the negative comments about The Streams on this site. Since I am a single guy, I do not fear for my safety but do not invite my girlfriend over for fear for hers. Many cars have been broken in to and security is only here to lock the laundry rooms and get cars towed.

"Slum Lords" I refer to the management as slum lords because their maintenance is slow and will respond only in dire emergencies. When I had/have plumbing problems and water is spewing everywhere, they still waited through a weekend before showing up and used unskill labor to do difficult pipe soldering. It took 3 additional late-night, sleepless visits before the leak was stopped but the place was left dirty. Flooring was never replaced; I have bare concrete in my bathroom now.

"Office Staff" is unprofessional and seem bothered when visited with work. Any complaints are left upon deaf ears. However, they do fear "Alicia" whenever someone says they will escalate an issue to her. Though, "fear" does not translate into doing a job right--rather, they will make any excuse to pacify you for another day.

But, that all being said, it is not a bad place for a single guy to live. Close to school, shopping, freeways, and all other conveniences including the Meridian Sports club.
