Ok I have 3 apartments that I am looking at near matthews. The first one Sardis Place Matthews, it looks nice and price I won't, but I do not know if it is safe. #2 Berkshire at Matthews I like this place, but again its on 74 so do not know if it is a safe area. Last is the Paces apartments in Matthews. So if anyone has had any experiences at these places or know if they are a good place to live please let me know. Thank you.

Stay away from complexes right on 74 - high property crimes.

Cmpd has a crime map online - you should check it

Yeah many people have told me to check that website, but it won't let me check Berkshire and Paces, because they are in Matthews. Also I know that 74 is bad, but does it ever get better? Berkshire is not directly connected to 74 its on a short couple of roads away from it. Thanks for the advice.

Berkshire used to be called Chambers Ridge - been there at least 20 years. This is an okay area - no bad neighborhoods anywhere around it.

I agree with NTtoTX and could not recommend Sardis Place (on hwy 74).

Paces Commons is an affordable option in a good location.

You can also call the local police and they can tell you about incidents in that area. At least they did when I moved into my house in Matthews.
