The Collective At Lubbock, lubbock-tx

This place is way overpriced for the poor quality of the apartments. I got lucky and happened to get new carpet, but most of my friends’ units had carpets in the WORST condition imaginable. The overall materials used throughout the apartments are the lowest-grade materials possible. The water pressure in my shower was crazy low, and the water smelled and tasted so much like chlorine and chemicals. The location was also a major problem for me… being right off Avenue Q means constant exposure to Lubbock’s homeless population. The doors and windows don’t seal properly, so everyday i had a pile of dirt in my living room that had blown in from underneath the front door. The walls are so thin that you can hear every neighbor’s conversation and music from cars streets away. On top of that, packages are often lost or sent back, and management constantly looks for ways to up-charge. For example, after moving out, my friend was billed $175 for keys I had already returned for her over a month earlier. I clearly DO NOT recommend The Collective for student living.

The house was a good layout and has good furniture if you get the add on, I wish it came with a nightstand, but it came with a dresser, bed, and desk. It wasn’t very clean and the carpets were kind of stained but it smelled okay and wasn’t terrible. I liked the back patio if you get the courtyard add on, very good size and has a fire pit

This is an awesome place to live. We love the pool and grill area and the well equipped gym. It is very close to Texas Tech, and a short drive down the highway to some great shopping and food experiences! All of the staff from the maintenance, to the front desk, everyone is so nice and very helpful! It’s pet friendly and very close to a nice dog park!

I love the collective. Amazing staff. Especially Jackie she is so kind and helpful !!! The best ever she deserves a raise !!!!!

Terrible place! Make sure to read your contract. They will write a 12 month contract and you’ll be responsible for the entire lease even if you move out early for any reason. Most places include a cancellation policy or schedule, but not them. Lease anywhere else in Lubbock! Also, they don’t invest in their properties. Place is nasty and fixtures are falling apart.
