Arbor, the-bronx-ny

The Arbor is a wonderful place to reside in. The facility is maintained to an amazing standard. The staff is incredible. We have moved around a lot and have never lived in a place where the staff is so well organized, kind, and accommodating. The resident manager Dragos goes above and beyond to create a safe and welcoming space for all residents. The neighborhood is excellent if you have young children, the high schools are also well rounded. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and well maintained. Kudos to Columbia University as every residential facility should be run like The Arbor. My family and I feel welcomed and supported here. Added bonus: There is a shuttle that conveniently picks you up and drops you off on campus and ride is typically 15-25 minutes. 10/10

Excellent staff and well run! Dragos, the Property Manager goes out of his way to get to know each resident and their residential needs. Ariant, Maria, Levy, and Luis are absolute stars! They work so, so, so hard and always maintain cleanliness, decency, discretion, kindness, and respect. Diverse body of students, rooftop access during warm months to grow flowers and herbs, gym, playroom for children and family ... and I cannot emphasize how much the staff goes out of their way to help each and every single tenant. Dragos' leadership skills shine through via the loyalty, respect, and discipline of the staff to service. Thank you. -N.Y. & Wes.

An amazing place with a dedicated maintenance team and beautiful space! Staff are very friendly, and it’s very close to the park, which is perfect for my family and dog! I also love how there are a gym workout area, children’s playroom, and working space.

It's the columbia university housing for faculty and graduate student. It's fine for medical school but too far from the main campus. Though connected by the shuttle, but you might take the risk of not being able to get in during rush hours.

Basically a comfortable place to live, but don't choose the groud-level rooms by the street (i.e., apt 2A/B etc), you'll be getting knockings on the windows by strangers day and night.
