This is by far the noisiest apartment complex I've ever lived in. The noise is constant, and management seems to have little regard for residents' peace and quiet.
There always seems to be some kind of construction or reconstruction going on, with constant hammering, drilling, and banging throughout the day. On top of that, they regularly do "power cleaning" on weekends using extremely loud equipment. When I raised concerns about doing this on a weekend, I was simply told that it's considered... maintenance and that they have no control over when it happens. That response makes little sense, considering they are the ones managing the property.
Another ongoing issue is the trash. Even though residents pay for trash service, garbage is constantly left outside the garages and often sits there for most of the week before being picked up. It creates an unpleasant environment and is not what you would expect from a property that charges for this service.
Overall, it feels like management is completely disconnected from the people who actually live here. Between the nonstop noise, the poor handling of trash, and the lack of consideration for residents, I would not recommend living here if you value a clean and peaceful place to call home.

Hello! Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We apologize for how this information was communicated to you and would like to better address some of these concerns. Since we are renovating apartments, there will be noise during the renovation... which does affect the immediate neighbors. This noise only occurs weekdays between 8am - 5pm and we provide communication to residents in advance letting them know when a renovation is going to happen nearby. We also communicate this to prospective residents during the touring process. In regards to "power cleaning" on the weekends, that is one of irregularity and we do apologize for this specific occurrence. This was a one-off situation and noisy work over the weekend will be avoided. With a large community, trash and recycling pickups are needed twice a week. Since the pickups can happen at any time on the day the city has assigned to us, we need to ensure the bins are ready in the morning. As soon as they are picked up we return them to their correct location. This process is something that is unavoidable with the schedule assigned by the city. In addition, we recently switched from gas leaf blowers to electric, to help reduce the noise impact to our residents. We appreciate you sharing your concerns and would be happy to review these items with you in more detail to see if there's anything else we can do to improve your experience. Feel free to reach us at 408-456-0700 or elan@sheaapartments.com. Team Elan

Long Term Resident Loves Elan!
I just renewed after living here for 3 years. I love everything about this community. The nature walks we take are so peaceful and gorgeous. Every part of Elan is top notch. The people working here are so friendly and helpful. Today I am thanking Jessica, a Resident Advisor for promptly and efficiently handling my request. The people in the morning cleaning the shared spaces are also very sweet and always have a smile to share.
Thanks Elan for being a great (resort feeling) apartment complex.

Great place, and great people
I have a very nice experience living on the property. Every staff we interacted was really friendly and happy to help. In particular, I’d like to shout out to Theresa who didn’t hesitate to help us even when it was almost end of the day. We greatly appreciated her support which really made us feel supported and taken care of. Great place and great people. I recommend.
