stonecrest apartments birmingham Alabama

Stonecrest at Double Oak Mountain in Stonecrest, Birmingham AL is a higher-priced apartment community relative to the mass-housing type complexes popular with students and low-income tenants, but the extra cost might be worth it to you, especially considering the wide spread of available apartment types and neighborhoods in such a big city as Birmingham.
Although not quite downtown, Stonecrest at Double Oak Mountain Apartments is still near enough to the city center that places like Samford University, University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham Southern College, and a host of country clubs, golf courses, restaurants, shopping centers, hospitals, and other places of necessity are an easy drive away. Commuting is also convenient, with a main road almost at your doorstep.
The apartment is located within a good, quiet neighborhood, an important consideration as there are places within the city, mostly at the outskirts, in which the crime rate is quite high. Rent starts at just under $700 for a 1-bedroom/1-bathroom unit but the units are quite large, well-appointed, and nice-looking. A consistent complaint is that the walls are a bit thin and by the noise you are sure to know what your neighbors are doing. The staff, and maintenance and services get average ratings, meaning sometimes they are good and sometimes they are slow or ineffectual, which is par for the course for apartments everywhere. If you remember that Stonecrest at Double Oak Mountain is an apartment community and not Club Med, the experience tenants have is generally pleasant.
