“I find that the Ingham County Housing Commission inside Carriage Lane apartments is a good resource for low-cost housing. The building is kinda ran down but overall the people here are nice and easy to get along with so the social aspect is well diverse so it makes up for the looks of the building. It isn't too out of shape though. I have lived here off and on for nearly 13 lucky years so my opinion may be a bit biased. The residents here have a wide range of abilities and disabilities and I have learned a lot from pretty much all the people who dwell here. I also find it to be a safe place to reside as long as you don't invite or provoke trouble yourself. There are also activities albeit seldom to get to know the neighbors to prevent anyone really from being a stranger to any other person living here. One problem I face is the fact that it is a little distance from any of the stores here in Okemos such as Meijer and Walmart. I take public transportation to get to the venues in the area and the city bus that takes me to the places I need to go doesn't run on Sunday although it operates at a nearby bus stop just a little over every half hour of the day almost throughout every day of the week except Saturdays when it operates a little after every hour as the last bus stops here around 7:30pm and the bus also doesn't run on most holidays. If so, then you might not be able to ride the whole day. Overall, Carriage Lane Apartments where the office of the Ingham County Housing Commission is located is rather a decent place to live, in my opinion!
So...., If you are looking for a low-cost housing opportunity for you and a friend or just yourself then the Ingham County Housing Commission has you covered if you decide to live here!”

“I have been a resident of Okemos Station Apartments for just over 3 years now. I am very pleased with my experience here. The management, office, and maintenance staff feel like extended family members - they call me by name, they call my dog by name, they make this really feel like home. My maintenance requests have always been addressed very quickly (though luckily, I've only had a few). The property manager is very prompt in letting the residents know about any upcoming maintenance that will affect everyone; for example, they are very diligent with the required 6-month check-ins for every apartment (fire alarms, air filters, etc). We are always given a heads up a few weeks out, then a reminder email, flyers posted on all doors as the date approaches, and finally a reminder the day before. Same goes for any upgrades to the buildings. The pool is always clean, and it's usually open at least a month longer than any other apartment pool in other places I've lived. The no-smoking policy is strictly enforced, which is wonderful! They often have community events, usually with food and games, and they encourage all residents to participate. The property is gorgeous, and beautifully maintained. They keep up with all lawn maintenance, including mowing, weed eating, and pest control. One of my favorite things here is seeing wildlife every now and again - mostly deer and rabbits, sometimes turkeys, and a few other friendly animals here and there. The wooded area surrounding the apartment is protected, and it is so peaceful. The one and only downside for me is that there is only one washer and one dryer per building, but on the positive side there is an app that tells you if a washer and/or dryer is in use and if so, how much time is remaining in the cycle, so you don't have to leave your apartment to keep checking to see if it’s available. And finally, one of the most important things to know about Okemos Station Apartments is that it feels safe here! I just adore my apartment and love living here!”
