Now I know this is not a good area, I used to live near Clarcona-Ocoee Rd and Apopka Vineland back in 2000-2001 and it wasn't so hot then either

I found a complex and I'm going to look at it today, its called the Pineview Apartments on Pine Hills Road between North Lane and Clarcona Ocoee Road. I know that Pine Hills north of Silver Star isn't THAT bad but obviously I still have concerns, mainly for my car getting broken into or stolen

Since for some reason I cannot get onto apartmentratings.com I'll provide this link instead. If I remember correctly, apartmentratings.com had a 70% recommended rating, which is good considering review sites are usually nothing but bad reviews

I'm still going to see the property for myself though. Anybody here ever live in these apartments or live(d) in this area?

DavieJ89 unless you are moving to be close to work I would not recommend that area.

Not the worse part of pine hills but I would not recommend you live there. I think there are probably other options that may be within the same price range that are better for you. Davie why are you moving? I thought you were taking care of a home in Hunter's Creek. Let us know what's up so we might be able to give you better options.

There was an ad in the Clermont News leader this week for a live in house sitter that actually paid a stipend as well. Google the paper and look at the ads. Yes, it's a bit of a poke, but you could transfer to a closer Publix and the stipend would more than cover the extra fuel costs.

If you're planning to live in Pine Hills, I'll just say that there's a gun show at the fairgrounds a bit down Colonial this weekend. You should stop there before you move.
