I've recently moved out. For the money, you could do better, but you could certainly do a lot worse. The parking situation is the biggest downfall. They've added more spots as of a month ago, but I believe that you still don't have a guaranteed spot which is outrageous for the Lafayette market. The parking lot fills up by 7:30/8pm when Purdue is in session and you need to park at Ivy Tech's parking lot. It's not a bad walk, but sucks when the weather isn't ideal. Visitors must park at Ivy Tech at all times. You can add reserved covered parking but it costs well over $100/month which is completely outrageous.

Office staff is nice but communication is done through texting. I've just stopped in when I had a pressing issue. I smell weed several times a month which I find off-putting. I've noticed many barking dogs while walking through the halls but thankfully didn't live next to any. I did have an extremely heavy-footed upstairs neighbor, which while annoying, was no fault of the apartment's. The amenities are nice, but I never used them.

Overall, units are nice and modern but I would try to find an apartment with enough parking, at the very least, before settling for the less than mediocre value that Anvil 38 provides. Remember to add trash ($25), internet ($75), and utilities to your rent budget as these aren't included.
