    Save yoir money. Overprices. High utility bills, not ADA compliant with no handrails on the stairs. People living in apartments due for remodels are being told to vacate before their lease is completely expired. The walls are paper thin that yoi cam hear others' conversations.

    I lived here at Springburne in the early nineties for 4 years then bought a home. I had to move due to health reasons, as I needed a one floor plan. I thought about checking with Sprinburne since I had liked living here and needed some time before I decided on what to purchase. I have lived here for three years now and I'm not sure that I want to leave. It is so convenient, livable, clean, quiet, and the staff is exceptional. I would highly recommend looking at Springburne of Polaris if you are looking for a nice place to live.
