Valley Apartments

Pat Brown

I lived here when I first moved to ABQ last year, while I was looking for a house to buy. The apartments are nice, they are a good size. I was renting a two bedroom, the floors are tile in the living room and kitchen, title that looks like wood, the bedrooms had carpets. The big bedroom has a huge closet. The utilities were included in the rent, so that was great. Now for the bad stuff. There is no security at all. I lived there from August 1, to January 1st. so five months. The battery out of my car got stolen. I went out to the parking lot on Thanksgiving morning to find the battery stolen. A rim on the same (very old) car was also stolen, I was so pissed off, that I slept in my car for a few nights with a loaded gun just waiting for them to return. The building is full of people that use drugs and are desperate. It's also full of cigarette smokers, the entire grounds reek of cigarette smoke. It's nasty. There are no smoke free options in this huge complex. The maintenance issues are addressed quickly which is good. But the security issues, and the rift raft that live there, makes it less than desirable. There are much nicer places in ABQ to rent for about the same or even less money. There is a lot of trash yelling and screaming at their kids, the poor parenting skills are on display daily. I found it to be very depressing. They have some nice play areas for the children. It's dog friendly, so if you have a dog, there are lots of people with dogs. There is a very nice condo complex right next door that I always took my dog to. The location is nice, next to Old Town, but there is a lot of crime, and no security in the building, which is a HUGE problem. I would only live there if no other place would except you.But there are so many units in ABQ there is no reason to go there, unless you're a drug addict and or a criminal. Sorry it's a shame too, because the units themselves are ok, I don't know if they still include the utilizes in the rent, which is a good deal.. One other thing you can't go into the office and pay your rent. You can do it online for a cost of 3.00 or drag yourself to a Walmart and stand in a huge line. There is no where to mail it to, which is crazy IMO.

My family has lived at Valley in the past years, and I now live here. Valley has improved a lot since the new manager has been here. Crystal is great with us residents. She has a really great team as well!! The property is very much cleaned up , and the maintenance is always working at all times (every time i see them). The outside of the property is brighter and more welcoming. The inside of the apartments are a little out dated but the office and maintenance team are the reason i decide to continue to rent here. Never change the manager again, the past manager was very unprofessional and never wanted to help us. Keep up the great work guys!

Lived here for 6 month was absolutely horrible neighbors car got shot like 12 times while we were upstairs, seen another neighbor house get robbed. I called the cops because a elderly lady got robbed if you got the extra 100$ find something else unless your in a bad situation and you need move the despite is only 300$ best thing about these apartments. The last leasing manager is super unprofessional.

The rooms are spacious and location is convienant but the leasing manager is unprofessional and should be fired. The air conditioning didn't work most of the summer so be prepared to suffer a heat stroke.
