Somerset Glen Apartments

Well, I lived here for three years and was pretty happy to leave. Despite being told how well they keep the units inspected, it took almost two and a half years to finally get the apartment straightened out. Plumbing issues, cheap ownership, delayed maintenance, electrical problems, occasional flooding all convinced me to live elsewhere. I had left something behind in the unit which was never found by the manager which was suspicious. The building is starting to show its age and there is only one maintenance man who is as overwhelmed as the manager is.
Unless you are actively watching over your senior constantly, I would suggest a different property where the facilities are better kept. I witnessed a lot of turnover while I was there and the people who remain are not that pleased with the micromanagement. The grounds were kept trimmed but it is hiding more obvious problems within the structure.

I spoke with the manager who says her vendor towing company never shows up on time when she calls but they have a good relationship because they pay her a kickback. I told her she needs to switch over to a real company that responds. Stop looking out for your own pocket and start looking out for interest of your tenant. Someone fire this lady.

Living at Sommerset Glen was the worst experience of my life. The manager was more like a warden. Jenny the manager would go out at night to have cars towed even if she was aware the cars belonged to visitors of tenants and which units they were visiting. She also conducts inspections once or twice a year of one’s apartment. I don’t know of one person that ever got their security deposits returned, no matter how clean or free of any damage it may be? contacting the headquarters office does no good since they must have a policy of not dealing with tenants. Stay away from that place until they get a new company manage it.

Rip off.
Do not live here.
They kept charging on every little thing.
Always think how to rip off their tenants.
It got worse since the management company changed.

Sounds like they rip people off charged people for gate clickers they’ve already paid for. They’re not allowing people to put stuff on the balcony and tow people if they park overnight. What if your mom needed help but you couldn’t stay because you can’t get an overnight pass? If you leave junk mail, they’re charging $ 15. Rip off! Oh! And they send letters to raise your rent in the middle of your lease! Isn’t that illegal? My mom lives there and all this has happened to her and other tenants. This is a real review. I can’t make this stuff up.

Great place to live. My parents have lived here for 2.5 years. No complaints. They love the staff; very friendly and energetic. What I love the most is the senior party’s they hold for them. Such a fantastic place. Thank you Jenny for such a wonderful experience.

These senior apartments are located in La Mirada. There are many great things about this independent living (i.e., unassisted living) apartment building. It is a cute little gated community. Behind the gates of this community is an adorable park like environment. There is a community pool, community meeting areas and lots of grassy areas. The grounds are kept up very nice. There is parking available for residents, which includes a limited number of covered parking areas. For active seniors, there are a number of organized activities of which to participate.
This apartment community is within walking distance of a CVS and a 24 Hour Fitness. Down the street is a commercial area of La Mirada. There are a number of stores centrally located including Vons, Wal-​Mart, Target, Kohls, Staples and Office Max. There are also a number of different local restaurants and eateries in the nearby shopping area.
