North District, riverside-ca

Like the doormat outside of North District says “you’re gonna love it here!!” I will be going into my senior and have lived here since my sophomore year and it’s been great!! Love the CA’s love the staff love ND!!! Would 1972749393993% recommend any incoming sophomores to live here.

North District Apartment is the newest university apartment @UC Riverside. Beautiful, modern exterior & interior design, nicely appointed furnishing, great location which is about 5-10 minutes walk to UCR classrooms.

Please don’t live here. I have so much to say about this place. Firstly, I’ve lived here since 2022, and I’ve stayed in the same room. It’s significantly smaller than the other ones (mind you I’m paying the same in rent as my roommates). My roommate was moving out so I requested almost a year in advance to have my room switched (it was guaranteed to me at first), and the when it was time to be give said room, I was told I would not have my request accommodated? Why? Besides that, the staff is rude, maintenance takes FOREVER for requests! I’ve had stuff broken for months, ants, and other issues and I’ve had to wait so long to get accommodated. The stairwell was covered in feces once! This place is honestly a dump! Lastly the elevators suck, they’re always broken. There’s 4 elevators, but only two of them go to the 5th floor (which I live on). One time the only working elevators were the ones going to the 4th floor and my leg was broken! It was almost impossible to reach up there and I had to stay elsewhere for a few weeks. This place is not ADA compliant at all and they honestly need to be sued for this. Overall, please IM BEGGING YOU, live ANYWHERE ELSE. There are TOO MANY ISSUES. I could keep going on and going on. North district, UCR, DO BETTER!

The management is horrible. Residents can only get a hold of student staff (that are not helpful) and no higher-ups. The walls are extremely thin, it’s rare to get housed with the people you choose, and the elevators are constantly breaking down. Not to mention the fines they put on your account if you leave anything during move-out (which you shouldn’t be fined for). They send people to fix appliances in the apartment that never actually get fixed. The WiFi sucks, the parking waitlist is awful, and the store hours are weird. Oh and there is a never-ending ant infestation. If you want a cheaply built, overpriced apartment that only looks nice because it was recently built, you should look into staying here.

i submitted the order on a weekend and got a response by the 2nd business day which I think is good since I assume lots of work orders come in and the workers are busy. He thoroughly explained what the issues were and how he fixed them and had a good answer for every question i had
