Review for Jefferson At Dedham Station Apartments

I am a current rsident at Jefferson at Dedham Station. All in all the apartments are nice. There is a problem with noice. I don't feel that there is any real noise barrier from one apartment to the next. You can hear everything going on in the hallway and everyone in the hallway can hear everything going on in your apartment. Also there are quite a few tweens and teens whose parents let them rome the hallways. They tend to be in large packs making a lot of noise and throwing whatever trash they may have in the hallways. Noise is definately my biggest complaint. The onsight gym is nice, but there is very little equipment and you have to time it just right so that there is equipment available to use. I do feel the rent here is a little high and some of the tenants are a little sketchy. Reading these reviews is the first time I have heard anything about section 8, but seeing the quality of some tenants here I can see it. Most of the tenants here are very friendly and personable, you just have those select few that you have to watch out for. The office staff is nice, but many of them seem very plastic and artificially nice, but the maint. people are all very nice. The Legacy Place they built is nice to walk to and have here, but on that some note there really are not that many stores there and if you want to really do some shopping damage, it is not the place. Traffic getting in and out of the apartment complex is absolutely horrible. Before this mall was built, around the holidays, it would take you 45 minutes just to drive the 1/8 mile from rt 1 to the apartment complex. With the addition of this mall, I am not looking forward to driving anywhere this holiday season. If you dont drive and you just use public transportation, this is a great location, but if you drive, it's not so great.
