Mirage is in the NW, near Herndon and Brawley. That is probably OK although it is a ways out on the edge of the city. There are a couple of shopping centers with groceries, etc nearby but you would need to drive for most other activities or needs.
Torrey Ridge is the old Village Green Apts in Sunnyside. I believe that the complex is for sale. If so you might not want to move in without knowing how a new owner/management company might operate.
Hunter Place is in an area that I can't really give you specific guidance about. The area around Ashlan/West can be OK but there are some iffy parts. I'm not sure how Hunter Place falls.
Likewise, I'm not sure about Cardinal Creek. It could go either way.
I'd stay away from Redwood Canyon, that complex has had many names over the years (Beck Place, Hampton Court, etc.) and there is possibly a reason for that. It has had problems over the years and they seem to change the name to start over. But I haven't heard any reason to think that it is better now.
If they would fit your budget, there are some nice complexes along Nees between Blackstone and Palm, that would be addresses in the 300, 400, and 500 blocks of East Nees.
Besides these also look at some of the newer complexes in Clovis around Fowler and Highway 168. Easy commute into Fresno.
