The Garfield

This is your average apartment, nothing to special. I happen to move in around November 2016 and my apartment does not look like the pictures. So if you happen to get one of those, great! All of my appliances are old and small; no stainless steel appliances. I came from a house all of my life and coming here I would prefer a little more security. Although i have not heard of any confirmed break ins or theft, it seems pretty safe. I realize I just prefer going through a secured locked door or two before coming to my apartment door. Maintenance takes about 4 weeks to get to your requests. They have valet trash, which is pretty good. No signs of bugs or rodents however I do have an issues with bees coming inside my unit. The staff is average. It's a gated community but the back gate is always broken. The units are not soundproof; you will hear AND smell everything. Multicultural and very diverse in age. Haven't seen any major incidents. Bowie police station is across the street.

I feel safe here and it's got what I need to keep the kids entertained with the pool and pet allowances. I love how diverse our community is. I meet different people at the monthly events and it's nice to know who your neighbors are.

I love it here. I have met positive new neighbors in the Fitness Center.

Good price for a 2 bedroom apartment in a very good area. Lots to do in the vicinity. Apartment itself is good size but lacks quality in the details. The front office is very nice and always quick to help.

My living experience at the Garfield has been great questions have been answered in a timely manner and service request have been completed in timely manner.
