    Review Summary for 61 Malcolm X Boulevard
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews of 61 Malcolm X Boulevard, Brooklyn reveal persistent issues with pest infestations, including roaches and mice, and poor building maintenance such as water damage, mold, and unreliable appliances. Tenants frequently mention negligent and unresponsive management, with unprofessional handling of repairs and absentee landlord behavior. While the rent is relatively affordable and neighbors are considered friendly, the overall living experience is undermined by cleanliness problems, ineffective garbage management, and ongoing flooding concerns. Renters advise comprehensive property upgrades, improved pest control, and professional management to address long-standing issues before considering moving in.

    Roaches, mice, mold, water damage
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Price was kind of okay
    Cons:
    Whole apartment building was infested with roaches and they don’t do anything about it. (Doesn’t matter how clean and sterile we kept our apt, we kept seeing roaches. The whole building just needs to be renovated). Also saw mice. Mold in the a/c units and in the windows/bathrooms. Tried contacting management about problems and they never resolve anything, also very rude. First floor apartments got flooded and have water damage, but they didn’t do anything to fix it. Don’t make new renters aware of the flood damage either. Only one washing machine works. Contacted management many times to fix the other washer, but they literally never fixed it (or anything else).
    Advice to owner:
    Actually make changes and stop renting to new people until you fix the long list of issues.
