I would recomend Forest Park to anyone who is looking for affordable, clean and safe living. The office staff and maintence staff are great, couldn't ask for any better! The location is great, in 5 to 10 minutes you can get to grocery stores and Walmart, it's close to downtown too! The property is very well lit at night and I have never doubted my safety. The laundry rooms are clean and I have never had to wait for the machines. Parking is plentiful and the lot is keep clean, if you have pets there are dog walking areas provided with "pet waste" baggies, and everyone is good about using them! As far as noise, of course these are apartments, not a house so you can sometimes hear your neighbors music or people walking upstairs, but it's not loud and doesn't bother me. I love it here and plan to stay a long time! Another plus is the only utility you have to pay for is electric, and it is extremely low cost, I hardly ever turn my heat on.
