    Alder Crossing Apartments is the best apartment community I’ve ever lived in. The managers and maintenance team are always quick to respond, and my apartment is both spacious and fairly priced. I don’t plan on moving until I eventually buy a house - unless rent were to increase significantly. For now, the rent is very reasonable for the area, especially considering there are no amenities. One note for anyone living here (or anywhere in the Portland-Metro area): always lock your car and avoid leaving anything visible on the seats. I often see shattered windows in the parking lot and driveway, and two neighbors told me their cars were broken into after leaving valuables out (a purse in one case and packages in another). That’s not unique to this community - it’s just a reality in the area. Overall, I highly recommend Alder Crossing for anyone looking for a great place to live.

    Upstairs neighbors have been combined about multiple times by multiple tenants. No one gets back to me about questions I have regarding rent or anything else

    2.5/5 Camryn B. on Jan 6, 2025

    At first out experience was great. Now our property manager responds infrequently, mail is stuck in a parcel box all the time, and a homeless man sleeps under my porch. Not to mention i keep getting charges at random points in the month with no prior notice.
