Long-term residents seeking affordability and mature landscaping in North Austin who prioritize location over frequent maintenance attention.

Core details are sourced from this business's Google Business Profile (checked 2026-09-22). Website-sourced details were fetched 2026-07-21.

What we found

Long-term residents praise the leafy North Austin location, friendly individual staff members like Kimberly and Lauri Jo, and the value of spacious older units at moderate rent. Yet recent arrivals report weeks-long maintenance delays, severe cockroach infestations across apartments despite requests, hostile office communication, and property-wide condition issues ranging from cracked stairs to debris-filled dumpsters. The divide is sharp: those who stay longer tend to overlook dated infrastructure; newcomers cite systemic unresponsiveness and sanitation failures as dealbreakers.

The business website highlights pet-friendly policies (cats, dogs up to 55 lbs), a pool, and picnic areas. Several reviews mention prompt response times and grill facilities as positives. However, the reviews that detail pest control involvement show that treatment has not resolved infestations, and multiple reports of uncooperative or confused staff undercut claims of friendly service. Lease termination disputes and parking/security complaints add further friction.

Praised for
  • friendly and responsive staff (when present)
  • peaceful, quiet location with mature trees
  • comfortable apartments and respectful neighbors
  • affordable rent relative to size
Watch-outs
  • persistent cockroach and pest infestations
  • poor maintenance response times
  • unresponsive management and communication gaps
  • property maintenance issues (broken stairs, overflowing dumpsters, debris)

Best for: Long-term residents seeking affordability and mature landscaping in North Austin who prioritize location over frequent maintenance attention.

The Hedge Apartments

4.2(309)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Staff like Bob and Monica earn consistent praise for leasing support and attentiveness, and rent is competitive for the North Austin location. Behind the friendly front desk, reviewers report ongoing battles with roaches, delayed repairs (elevators offline for a week), broken security gates, and frequent disturbances from residents and transient foot traffic. Management appears quick to lease but defensive when issues arise. The dog park and fitness center work, and quiet units do exist. However, maintenance follow-up is often incomplete, pest control treatments fail to resolve infestations, and ADA accommodations break down under pressure. Several long-term residents have left due to roaches; others cite mold, drug activity, abandoned furniture at dumpsters, and a permissive attitude toward rule-breaking. Affordability and location draw renters, but living conditions often fall short of tour promises.

Starburst earns strong praise for its leasing and management team, especially staff members Yolizz and Gabriella who handle applications and resident concerns with patience and care. However, quality of life is seriously compromised by neighbor noise, insufficient parking, ongoing pest issues including a resident keeping a rooster and chickens, and weak enforcement of community rules.

Orbit's leasing staff earn consistent praise for warmth and efficiency; many move-ins feel genuinely welcoming. But persistent roach complaints, a web of undisclosed fees totaling $70+ monthly, and chaotic move-out practices tell a different story. Water shutdowns, broken shared laundry, aggressive towing (even for properly registered cars), and unresponsive management after tenant transition have soured recent experiences. The gap between a 72% five-star rating and the severity of structural complaints suggests newer tenant reviews differ sharply from those facing move-out and pest battles. Unit maintenance splits: some report quick fixes, others wait days for basic repairs while paying fees for services they cannot use. Management staffing changes appear to scramble processes, and communication breaks down once tenants try to leave. The roach issue stands out as unresolved despite repeated pest control visits and mandatory pest-control fees.
