Loma Riviera Community Assn

If you’re retired, you’ll probably like it here. The HOA is open from some 9 – 12 on weekdays, so it isn’t the type of place for folks still in the workforce. Secondly, maybe because of the large portion of retirees here, they are home more and thus take the community rules and their enforcement very seriously. The community newsletter is patronizing with phrases like, «for the umpteenth time pick up after your pet.» I should note they don’t provide community trash cans or bags, not that it matters. As a professional and responsible adult, comments like that make me re-​think the amount of cash I lay down here for rent. It just seems like a very petty community and that makes it a stressful place to live. I think I’m not a good fit for the community because I work during the day. Further, as a single female I would say I don’t feel very safe here either. It’s the type of community that is very insular so if I did find myself in trouble or screaming for dear life. I’m not so sure any of the residents would take it upon themselves to help. Instead, I’d probably get a note about a noise violation :) The community makes it stressful, maybe it would be different if you bought a condo here. For me, I’m looking forward to moving out of here.

I have lived in the complex over 6 years Really nice complex. Friendly neighbors and beautiful plantings. Close to everything but feels private and safe.

We have lived in Loma Riviera for about 11 years and have raised our 3 children here. We love the convenient location, the quiet ambience, the friendly neighbors, and entertaining outdoors. The association changed from an onsite manager to a management company, but they have done a beautiful job of revitalizing the complex. It is a pleasant place to live.

I am currently working with a member of the Loma Riviera Board of Directors on a problem tenant there who continues to open her back gate onto a public street and lets her dogs out to roam the neighborhood unsupervised.
This is a problem for me, as I ride my bike by there almost daily. The unleashed pets chase and jump on on me-​scratching my already scarred legs even more! Even though there is some new dude working at the front desk in the Community Room, several board members are well aware of the issue and seem eager to get the problem under control, if not surely from a liability standpoint.
This property is nice and they keep it up. Although mostly older folks seem to live here, I adore the New Orleans feel to some of the condos and no one can argue with the great and convenient location of the complex-​as it is near to just about anything in the immediate area.
Now Loma Riviera is installing Leash Ordinance signs along it’s famed «poodle walk» area and hopefully getting those wily canine menaces under control.
