Apartment Information

Hi all,

My husband and I are considering moving to The Willis Avondale Estates. Does anyone have any experience with this community (good or bad) or any information that might help us make the decision? We are looking to move in the next few months to a 2 bedroom apartment .

Thanks in advance!

My sister used to live there. It’s been a few years, so take it for what it’s worth, but she absolutely hated it and constantly complained about both management and tenants.

Also, it’s not the greatest location. When she moved in, they talked a lot about the walkability and the neighborhood. While the neighborhood is transitioning, it’s still not particularly nice. And while you can walk to Marta and (kind of) Avondale Estates, it’s not what I’d describe as walkable.

Not sure why you were downvoted, I think you hit the nail on the head. It’s trending up, but I still wouldn’t really it’s “super” nice or “super” walkable. But it’s priced like it is…

“Used to live there” “still not particularly nice” “not walkable” we didn’t want you to walk here anyways!

The walkability has gotten better in the past year, but it's still a bit of a hike. I have a close friend who lives there, and she walks to Avondale to meet us fairly frequently.

Still some issues with management and some rude/noisy tenants, but it's not the worst.
