Iâve never written a review like this before, but people need to know: Meadowood Apartments is not a safe placeâ¦especially for women.
The complex itself is rundown and neglected. They call it âthe manager special,â which just means everything is painted over..light switches, outlets, hinges, you name it. The paint peels, the fixtures are outdated, and the apartments feel slapped together. Spiders are everywhere, and theft from patios is common. But none of that compares to the real issue: Gonzaloâ¦
Gonzalo is a maintenance worker here, and while he may do his job during 9â5, what happens after hours is disturbing. He and his wife sit outside watching residents, including children, tracking who gets out of their cars, who comes and goes. Gonzalo walks the property constantly, not just for work, but to stare into windows, through blinds, and into peopleâs personal space I have seen it myself, my family living here has seen it, and my visiting family has questioned it. As a woman, I feel watched. I feel hunted. I feel unsafe.
Every time I step outside, heâs there. Turning his head, breaking his neck to stare. Eyeing me when I walk to my car, when I take out the trash, when I simply exist. Itâs not just uncomfortable, itâs invasive. Itâs creepy. And itâs relentless. ITS INAPPROPRIATE.
During inspections, he seemed more interested in finding fault with my unit than addressing the actual problems. The apartment itself is falling apart, yet he nitpicks tenants like heâs on a mission. Iâve never had issues with any other maintenance worker, just him. Definitely not legal to be working after hours either.
Iâm afraid to speak to management or ownership because retaliation feels real here. But I shouldnât have to live in fear. I shouldnât have to scan the property before stepping outside. I shouldnât have to feel like Iâm being watched in my own home.
If youâre a woman, a parent, or anyone who values privacy and safety, please think twice before moving here. No one deserves to feel this way. At least until this specific man LEAVES. I hope this is brought to the owners attention and really decide how this is doing good for their tenants. Who knows how long this man has been this way and who else he has made uncomfortable. There needs to be a serious discussion with Gonzalo.
