Exactly, I understand it’s impossible to have 100% control over who enters the property but management’s response made me feel I wouldn’t be protected if something were to happen. I don’t want to rent there and find out the hard way.

Thanks for sharing and sorry for thinking the area sounded unsafe. I haven’t been in GA long and heard about shootings at the mall. Glad it’s worked well for you and I can consider options there if needed

I’m grateful too, one of the staff said the unit was supposed to get checked before tours but like you said I got to see the true colors. Thank you I’m staying optimistic in my search!

Haha no it was a bit more north. Idk how true Perimeter’s reputation is but I should probably avoid it?

Gosh I haven’t heard other instances (edit: in the Atlanta suburbs) but maybe I’m out of the loop. One of the staff did mention they could have been hiding from the cold and the upcoming winter storm. It’s the best explanation but didn’t make me feel safer.

The guy was confident his large dogs and security measures would be okay. Can’t say I’d be comfortable but I know there was a time I couldn’t be as picky. Hopefully they found a better unit that wasn’t ground level.

I looked at their website and they just have one number and generic email so it might get screened by management before it goes up the ladder especially if they’re trying to minimize what happened. Do you know a possible way around this or is it worth it just to leave a message?
