This building is owned by TRIP (an acronym for something like Troy Rehab Improvement Program). The building is actually quite beautiful and sturdy. Troy was once known for their small city way of life and families that stayed there for generations; my great grandmother once live in the unit I lived in. The small city way of life has recently changed. The upsides to this building are that the floors are level, the unit has full-sized bathtub in good condition, structurally it is secure, they permit/ted tobacco use indoors, and allowed waterbed on the first floor (don't know about the upper floors). Their maintenance response was fairly quick to very quick. The unit has a breaker that kept tripping; they repaired it. There was some kind of critter scratching inside the wall of the bathroom; they deemed a bird got in there and they removed it.
The lease agreement when you move in instructs the tenant to "clean the place like it is a crime scene" before you leave, yet I found the carcass of a dead bird under the kitchen cabinet a year or two after I moved in; it appeared to be a previous tenant's pet They provided only one sliding window screen that could be opened from the inside or outside of the building for the three windows when I moved in. I installed screens. My neighbor, if it wasn't vacant to the north never opened their front windows. My neighbor to the south has chicken coupe wire over their windows. I found a handprint on the exterior of my window as if someone tried to open it from the outside, so I ended up installing louvered locking shutters. Multiple times I found my locking mailbox broken into and my mail scattered all along the shared front hallway. Then crime spiked. I have no criminal record, yet the police attempted to forcefully remove me from my unit without any documentation; I was released without being held and after receiving medical care. A man was shot to death by the police about a block away Edson Thevnin according to the news), then there was a fire across the street, then next door (chicken coupe wire house), then down the street, then a block up, and that's when I relocated; that's when my _entire family_ left the city. The fires and crime would continue after I relocated almost an hour away until today. During COVID this city had more than 100 fires in _one_ year (source: Sidewinder Photography). Wiki says the city has a population of less than 50000 people now.
