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 2026-09-08). 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.

4.2(307)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Staff like Monica, Bob, and Catt earn consistent praise for going above and beyond during leasing, but once residents move in, problems emerge fast. Roaches appear in most units despite pest control; maintenance work dragging on for weeks; gates promised to be secure actually stay open around the clock; move-out fees suddenly spike hundreds of dollars without notice. Rent sits low for the Austin market and location near shopping and dining helps, yet numerous reviews detail feeling unsafe at night, stepping over drug use, and discovering the advertised peaceful community was oversold. Reviewers split sharply: those rating five stars cite quiet common areas and responsive staff; those rating one star endure infrastructural failures, pest infestations nobody fixes, and what they describe as unsafe conditions. Several mention homelessness on the property, overnight visitors and unauthorized persons, and a general feeling management glosses over problems rather than resolving them.

Starburst's leasing team, especially Yolizz, Gabriella, and Ana, earn consistent praise for warm, attentive service that eases the application and move-in process. Maintenance responds quickly once engaged. However, persistent noise complaints from neighboring residents and cars, alongside parking shortages during busy hours, undercut the experience for some renters. The community is improving under new management, with work order turnaround and staff responsiveness notably better than in earlier months. Unit layouts do not always match website descriptions (advertised 1-bedrooms may be studios without interior doors). Those prioritizing staff attention and quick resolution should tour; noise-sensitive renters should ask about building-specific conditions first.

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.
