The amount of apartment you get for the rent is high. You are probably paying a little extra just because of the Lake Oswego name. You are in a safe location, and are close to the 217 and I-5 making shopping easy. The people are generally quiet, and I don't think there has been a break-in around the area.
However, there is something always going on at these apartments. It may be the grounds keepers who once arrived at 7am, they may be pressure washing the walkways, or fixing the roof. You will also be paying for things you may never use. Like a little summer concert on the lawns that blasts loud music for the better part of the day, or a catered dinner in the club house. I would rather have 20 dollars knocked off my rent since I either need to be sleeping during these events, or am at work.
The free parking is a plus, but it costs extra if you want a covered spot. Each apartment is nice inside, but as I said before you don't really get a lot for what you pay for. I don't have much in the way of stuff, but the kitchens are very small.
Finally the staff. When I first started living here there were two really nice girls who worked in the leasing office. They have since left. What remains are three nice, but insincere, and relatively uncaring people.
Over all about a 6.5 out of 10.
Pros: Clean, safe, and good location
Cons: Something always going on, no dogs, small kitchens
