WARNING PARENTS: NOT SAFE!!
My son has been a resident for 10 mos. Two weeks ago, someone tried to steal his truck from the parking lot. It was a legitimate theft attempt...truck was moved to the end of the parking space, piece of a knife broken off in the ignition and door was left ajar, so the battery was dead.

I called the office requesting to speak to security, got the run around and was told they had to have a police report to forward to security and management. So, he filed a report with Cayce Public Safety, I took the report to the Riverside office and requested contact info for security. My husband is a police officer, so we were hoping to get peace of mind by conferring with them regarding security measures. It was at that point that I was informed THEY DO NOT HAVE SECURITY!
Their only form of surveillance/protection are two "courtesy officers" who live on property. What that means is they give these officers a break on their rent so their duty cars are visible when they are at the complex. These are full time officers, so you can guess how much they're actually there. Furthermore, management refused to give me contact info for these officers so that my husband could talk with them. These officers are not hired security!

I requested that my son be released from the final two months of his lease as he is afraid to leave his truck in the parking lot while he sleeps (let alone his motorcycle) and I'm afraid for his personal safety. I don't want to think about what might have happened if he had walked out to his truck as the attempt to steal it was taking place! Needless to say, Riverside management has NO intention of releasing him from the $1000 worth of remaining rent and no intention of hiring security to protect their residents!
Bottom line: $500 per month per bedroom, marketed to students, frequent break-ins and theft attempts...and NO SECURITY! Not even cameras in the lots or stairwells. AVOID AT ALL COST! You do not want your child living here!
