I lived in the Meritage for almost 3 years and I loved it so much that I’m trying to come back! Staff members are extremely friendly and maintenance is always on point

I have nothing but positive things to say so far. My only complaint is that the trash pickup is sometimes difficult and the dumpsters are often too full to fit trash in
