Oxford Apartments

If you like peace and quiet this is not the place to be. Second, if you dont like people smoking in the halls dont move here. No light in any of the bedrooms. Cant wait till lease ends!

Okay, first off, I have lived here when it was Manor Drive. I have been here for over 30 years and I can tell you that  while some of the tenants were "rowdy", I never had a problem with them.  People knew each other and were friendlier. While I have heard it referred to as the "projects", I have never thought of the buildings or its residents in such a negative manner. That is a stereo-type and those words need to be used appropriately.  I grew up here, and I attended the Clapp and Jones schools and I have good memories of friends and family, holidays, etc.Now for what is Oxford Apartments. Well, we NEVER had MICE in the apartment or a carpet that is cheap quality and ripples up, and problems with not having HOT water year round-NEVER!! Not when it was Manor Drive.   When a problem came about the group of women who worked here were always addressing it in a timely fashion and the snow clean up was not a problem. Everyone was TOLD to move their cars at the same time and the residents did, and the snow was cleaned up and NOT PILED BEHIND PACKED CARS MAKING IT A PROBLEM TO GET IN YOUR CAR IN THE MORNINGS AND HAVING TO RESHOVEL SNOW. This plan that Oxford has for snow removal is not working right. I do my part by being outside and having my car moved, but do not expect everyone to  do that. If the other residents do not come out, still plow the empty spaces so that the people who did move their cars can pull into the cleaned spots.Oxford has problems. And yes, the previous reviews are correct. These tenants are telling the accurate truth about everything.   Oxford has also the problem with solicitors. Even with the signs posted, they still come into the building to harass tenants. NEVER HAPPENED AT THE OLD MANOR DRIVE.  They may have "fancied" up the old Manor Drive and changed its name and did  landscaping, significantly increased the rent price and other upgrades which I really do not understand but, I preferred the old Manor Drive. Things worked well and were sturdy. People living here had nice apartments and did take pride with having nice things. Things were replaced in apartments if they were damaged or old including the tile floors.   Remember CLASS is not  determined by how much a person has, or how or where they live, or how much they pay for something, but by how a person carries him/herself and takes pride in what they have.   There are other things I could address in this review but will not.  :(
