Arbors of Cleburne

Been living here for only a few months in a 2bed 2bath and so far I’m very happy with it, although there are a few things I miss/​wish they had that I’ve been used to in other apartments. I pay roughly $ 780/​mo (which includes water, trash, sewer, and stormwater-​drainage costs) for their biggest floorplan of 1007 sq feet. Internet/​cable and electricity is separate, which kinda sucks since electricity in Texas is so ridiculously high compared to what I was used to in California. That brings my bill closer to $ 1000 per month… not bad if you’ve got a two-​income household or a roommate.
PROS:
Good price for the square footage (but then again I just came from California so…)
Awesome maintenance crew that respond right away
Online rent pay
Attractive grounds
Quiet
Staff gives you your privacy but is there when you need them
Close to shopping/​downtown, a gym is right next door
Two pools
$ 1.00 laundry
Four floor plan options
Washer/​dryer hookups
Safe – surrounded by a retirement village, a funeral home, and a church
Within walking distance of a school, if you have kids
Pet friendly
Large walk-​in closets
CONS:
My A/​C has a leak or something so has quit working repeatedly (maintenance has been great though… they just need to allow them to purchase the expensive tools to fix it)
Outdated appliances, and the same wooden cabinets I’ve seen in every other apt I’ve lived in
No balcony
No covered parking for your car to escape the unforgiving Texas sun
No gym (probably the thing I wish I had the most cause the gym next door… meh)
Can definitely hear neighbors downstairs in the bathroom when I’m in mine
Pet rent each month in addition to a one-​time deposit
Renter’s insurance required or pay a monthly $ 10 fee
Overall though, I would definitely recommend this place. It’s in the middle-​class financial range, in my opinion. Definitely a respectable place without having to be stinkingly wealthy to afford.
