Very nice place to live in a very good area; however very pricey and the manager Nancy is horrible!!!!! She despises children by enforcing ridiculous rules for kids in summer by not allowing them
outside without an adult at all times. Sh sent a memo stating absolutely no bicycles allowed in the courtyards( which was one reason that lured me to the place . I liked the fact that it was quaint and had a courtyard for kids to ride bikes) On top of it all Nancy also is such a control freak who despises children she took the liberty to call me to "warn" me that kids aren't allowed to take out trash and what kind of mother allows their 10 year old to do this, This is not acceptable for residents living at Altessa. There's more, Nancy is so asphyxiated on emphasizing her power she even took liberty with putting a chain lock around the pool during summer nights after 9pm. How's that for controlling! Last I checked Altessa was kid friendly and not a senior 55+ community. Nancy seems to think otherwise!
If it weren't for the Hitler style management who tries to make the community a senior citizen one, and the rent being so high I would still be there, as to me it's best choice if you are limited to apartment living.
