Since the new management company has taken over they have not shown any consideration to my fiancee's safety. There is and have been people in our apartment building who have harassed us and they are obnoxious. A man who lives upstairs gives Sharon hate stares when she is by herself. Sharon contacted the manager asking if she would inform the residents to treat her with respect since she is transgender and a disabled veteran; the manager replied back "We cannot make them do anything. They have their own personal opinions so there is nothing we can do about it." To me that shows that they do not care what happens to her. We have told them that she was being harassed and was afraid that she may be attacked, "sorry there is nothing we can do."
Our home is not private, we've had teenagers trying to stare inside our apartment to get a look at the "weird person" and her friend. Our carport is not safe. People wander through our carport and drop cigarette butts and smear ashes in our carport at night. Who knows what they are doing in the carports? We have actually considered and want security cameras in our carport so that we know our property and vehicle is safe.
Its sad when an LGBT person is under attack and the management company and police sit by and watch it happen. This can all be prevented with education and respect but instead we have to be hyper-alert and ready to deal with residents. There is no peace here and we know that. All these big management companies want is your money. I swear their motto should be "Pay your rent and don't call us!"
