Review From Modern Message|Recommended: YesThe Social Amherst is a lovely, quiet place to live. I've been here for 1 1 2 years and intend to stay long term. Matt, Mel, and Phoenix are the core on-site staff, all of whom positively impact the community. Matt will handle any and all issues concerns that arise, swiftly and with elegance. Mel is fundamental to maintenance, leading the charge to fix anything that breaks Also dogs love her . Phoenix will save you from that random emergency maintenance issue, as well as general assistance. All three core staff are essential to why this community is a good place to live.
I am excited for the recent increase in additions to the community, such as a new dog park and upcoming gym. There is also a free printer on-site for the community to use during office hours.
Snow removal is fantastic, with the hard-working crew out there keeping paths clear even during the storm
A laundry facility is located on-site, but there's also a laundromat just around the corner.
Overall a fantastic location.
Aaron, Aaron, what a wonderful acknowledgment of our community and team! We are thrilled to hear how happy you are with all that our community has to offer, like our top-notch amenities, prime location, and the attentive service of our team members like Matt, Mel, and Phoenix. Your encouraging support means a lot to us.
Review From Modern Message|Recommended: YesI moved here in September 2020 when the complex was still Amherst Grove. I'm super happy with the leasing office staff who are so friendly, kind, and helpful and enjoy how spacious my townhouse is. It's a great place to live and I'll be staying for years to come
Lauren, thank you for the glowing review! It means a lot to us to know that you have been happy in our community, and we look forward to passing on your comments to the rest of the team.
Review From Modern Message|Recommended: YesI like the manager's quick response to the email which is kind of annoying if it takes time to get a reply and wait for fixing. Thank you

Review From Modern Message|Recommended: YesI love this apartment complex. I did not try every single apartments in the area, but I am sure this apartment complex should rank top of the list. It is extremely quiet and well-managed. Management office is always there to help you out, and Matt is really nice. With the new management, there are many new things coming in or already here.
Aaron, we are delighted that Matt and his high standards for professionalism stand out for you, along with our peaceful surroundings and commitment to service. Thank you for your praise!
