I have a friend that lives at Vantage and HATES it. According to him, they are new apartments and look nice from the outside, but the complex is horrible- overpriced, bad residents and even worse staff. He can't wait for his lease to end.
I lived at Aviare Place when I lived in Midland and really liked it. I moved there based on the review of my best friend who lived there for a summer, and she liked them too. They are right off the loop so it made it easy to get to work or anywhere else you might want to go. I never had any problems while living there, unit or staff-wise.
There were a few other complexes off the loop that I looked at, but at the time there were hardly any units available in the entire city. Of the other complexes I looked at, the Clusters and Polo Park seemed pretty good.
