I am still living at enclave, and my attitude towards it has changed quite a bit since a year ago when I first moved in.
I was first drawn to its location: close to Sunflower, a yoga studio, a beauty school, a church, and some restaurants. The outside facilities -- pools, gym, grills -- looked nice enough at first glance, especially when you couldn't wait to shorten the tour in Arizona's mid-August.
I was sold quite easily. So I paid various fees and the expensive rent for a bare-boned 1 bedroom (my friend paid less to get a 2-bedroom house) and slowly discovered the deficiencies in this community.
The gym was small and way under-equipped. The walls were thin, and the appliances in my apartment were ancient -- I meant it, ancient!
Fine. Had to live with those.
Then, 7 months in, there was a major management change we were not notified of until absolutely the last minute, followed by complete chaos and lack of transitioning. We didn't get any sort of bill or statement for 3 months, and the temporary website looked very sketchy to make online payment.
So to be fair, I liked enclave's location, relatively quiet environment, landscape, and fairly responsive maintenance. What I don't like about it is that it is overpriced (no utilities were included plus various fees and insurance requirements), outdated amenities and appliances, last-minute notice on everything, and the apartments seemed to be fairly poorly built (20+ years. . .).
Overall, I think Enclave is liveable, but could be better. It is by no means a "high-end" community (mostly students and families), and the service isn't there yet reflecting the value (especially after the management change). So I don't see why it needs to be priced the way it is.
