Great place to live!

We love living here! The location is amazing, the staff is so amazing and responsive. Whenever we put in a service request they are there the next morning to fix it. The balcony space is huge, the Southern Village community is so adorable and a fun place to live, go on runs or walk around. I would live here again in a heart beat.

Decent while you live there but don’t expect to get your deposit back or an explanation about why they kept it.

Ive lived here for just over a year and Southern Village Apartments is very deserving of five stars.Pros: Safe, very quiet, convenient location (close to UNC, Southern Village shops and restaurants, Southern Community Park, Fan Branch trail, and Morgan Creek trail) and great neighbors (a nice mix of grad students, young couples with families, working professionals, and retired folks)Finally, I really believe the onsite team--both leasing and maintenance--go above and beyond. Its not uncommon for the maintenance team to show up within a half hour of submitting a maintenance request. They continually make improvements to the property, both landscaping and the actual buildings. They also have negotiated some very nice benefits for residents with a local grocer and a gym, both in walking distance.

Weve lived here for 2 1/2 years and love it! Its a gem of an apartment complex - beautiful buildings and grounds, and excellent management. The prices are a bit high, but its SO convenient especially if you visit the UNC campus often. Its about a mile away and on the bus line. Southern Village itself has great shops and events. The movies and concerts on the green every weekend are great! Very safe. I give it my top recommendation.

We endured 8 months here. The staff does their best, but the complex is well past its prime and the rent is exorbitant for what you get. The sound-proofing is poor, the HVAC unit is loud, we had to put up with water and dry-out procedures on three different occasions, we had at least 1 or 2 maintenance calls per month, there are cockroaches and silverfish, and to top it off there was constant construction noise from an adjacent hotel. All this place has going for it is the location.

BEWARE!!! I was all ready to give this place five stars until I moved out. The location is great (still a little pricey though) but very convenient. But beware when you move out! They will try to charge you for everything that they can. I was charged to replace all of the carpet in my apartment for one small (barely visible since I had cleaned it with my bissell cleaner) mark on the floor. This should have been considered normal wear and tear and absolutely did not justify ripping up all of the carpet in the entire apartment. I even did a walk through with one of employees who worked in the office who told me that my apartment was cleaner than the majority of apartments he had seen. I made sure to walk through the whole apartment and asked him if there was anything that he thought I would be charged for and he said absolutely not. I was informed that he had no say in the final judgement (in which case why is he allowed to do walk throughs?) I am appalled the way the property manager treated me on the phone while trying to inquire about the charged. She stated that my apartment reeked of urine which there is no way that is possible since my dog is 6 years old and has NEVER peed inside that apartment. The small mark on the carpet that they referred to wasnt even made by my dog!! I have lived in MANY apartments in my life (5 apartments with my current dog) and have never been charged for anything upon move out. I always leave my apartments cleaner than when i moved in. These crooks just wanted to find an excuse to put new carpet down in the apartment and needed someone to charge. DO NOT MOVE HERE!

Lived here for two years and loved it. Great location and great restaurants within walking distance.

Great quality and great location
