Writing this because I wish there had been a recent review before I signed a lease here. If you're considering moving in (especially if you fear bugs), read this:

The only thing I can truly speak to is the cockroach problem I experienced.
Before signing, I searched everywhere for reviews mentioning pests but found only old ones, so I thought it was under control. I asked Bry, the property manager, about pests, and she said they had no issues, which I now doubt. I even hired my own pest control... service biweekly.

When I did a walkthrough, the maintenance guy was scraping caulk from the baseboards, likely used by the previous tenant to fill gaps. I noticed a tiny bug near an outlet covered with tape, presumably to stop cockroaches. My stomach dropped as I realized they had been dealing with cockroaches.

I had already signed the lease, so I had the apartment cleaned and pest control come before moving in, hoping the baby cockroach I saw was a one-off. It wasn't.

My first night, I saw a cockroach with no food in the apartment. After that, they appeared everywhere: in the bathroom, on kitchen cabinets, walls, clothes, and even an empty fridge. Centipedes followed, attracted to the cockroaches. I was terrified and barely living in an apartment I paid for, constantly spraying insecticides and using peppermint oil to deter them. I even showered at the gym daily to avoid attracting them with water.

I wish I had seen a review like this before signing the lease and hope it helps someone else! Read More

For the first ten months or so, we had no issues. The apartment was loud since it is right on Sheridan, but that was minor. Then the roaches started. The roaches are living in the walls, but the management company thinks that spraying is enough to treat the issue. Well, it isn’t. They always blame certain apartments, but refuse to take responsibility, even though the maintenance people always leave the back door open (also a major security issue).
The washers and dryers are almost always in a... state of disrepair, and one of the washers constantly rips holes in clothes. Every winter, during the coldest days, the radiator pipes freeze up, forcing us to have a space heater to stay warm. There has also been constant issues with packages being stolen, which again, not great security here. On a couple of occasions, the garage and first floor have flooded.
Horizon does the bare minimum, and is just not a good management company. Sure, these apartments are inexpensive, but you can find better apartments elsewhere in Edgewater. Read More

I flew into Chicago from New York to house hunt. I had a very pleasant phone conversation and scheduled a showing at Sheridan Glen, when I arrived the leasing office told me they had no record of an appointment and hung up on me. After I called back they said again that there was no appointment and they had no vacancies during the time I’d be moving despite telling me the opposite when I scheduled the appointment. With managment that bad, I feel like I dodged a bullet
