Gret management team!
This property has really turned around in the past year! The new manager that has taken over has been super nice and sweet. If you have any issues you can just pick up the phone and call the office and she will help! The maintenance team has ensured to resolve all my issues in a timely manor and are so professional! I'm here for the long haul!

Yesss
I can't lie, Meridian Apartments surprised me. For the area it's in, the management is actually on top of things. They communicate with you, they don't leave you wondering what's going on, and if you have an issue, they get to it instead of making you wait forever.
The staff has always been respectful and willing to help, and it's honestly refreshing dealing with a team that actually answers you and follows through. Madison in the leasing office is real as hell—she'll talk to you like an actual... person instead of giving you the runaround. She's always been helpful, honest, and makes the whole process way less stressful.
If you're looking in this area, I'd definitely recommend checking Meridian out. Good management is hard to come by, and they really do make living here a better experience. If you're looking in this area, I'd definitely recommend checking Meridian out. Having good management makes a huge difference, and they really do their best to take care of their residents.

Resident Experience
I’ve been at this property going on 3 years and I haven’t had any major issues. It doesn’t look the greatest when you pull in any lot, but the inside of the units are actually REALLY NICE!! My lot has been very quiet the past 3 years and my kids feel comfortable living here. I’m very happy in my apartment!

Renovated apartments, new management
The complex isn’t bad. It’s a bit run down as the old company did not take care of the place, but the current owners seem to be taking action and doing many remodels and fixes. There can even be maintenance crews seen daily. When we first moved in, there needed to be repairs, but they at least fixed it within 2-3 weeks and fixed a later emergency plumbing problem within a few hours. The units they have available now seem to all be newly renovated! Mine even has radiant ceiling heating, nice... tiled floors, was newly painted, newer appliances, and has spacious closets. The only downside is the curb appeal. Some places look rundown, but I think this will change as the new management continues to renovate the complex
