Traffic in P-Cola blows

THe one thing I think of is that you may want to watch out there for the traffic in that town. The people can't drive and the town can't synch the lights so it always a mess when you drive in the morning or the afternoons so just remeber to give yourself more time if you live by there.

Live up at Northwoods Apartments. It is just North of I-10 on Olive RD. I hop on I-10, take it to I-110 then snake through the town to get to the base in the morning. I actually don't deal w/ lots of traffice and it takes about 30 minutes. They are pretty nice apartments and well priced at that. Need any info, shoot me a PM.

Master your ego, and you own your destiny.
I lived at Crestview while I was in API. Not a bad deal. Management was ok, theres some nice looking ladies in the office, but they tried to screw me over on the whole military clause thing. Oh, and the apartments on a whole are smaller than anywhere else in the area, and VERY little storage. I also heard of a few of their buildings having some bad bug problems.

Good area to be in though, if you need to have a mall/shopping area nearby. Theres a handful of decent bars there too, although the best ones are either downtown or on the beach.

Traffic wasn't so bad from there to NASP, for Apool you leave before the morning rush, and hey, lets face it, you tend to get back before the morning rush. To NASWF is a different story. As I said I LIVED there. It wasn't worth the drive every damn day.

The only REALLY good reason to choose this place above anywhere else in that area of P'cola is the proximity to O'Reillys. It's a five minute walk without crossing any major roads, and always had good beer cheap. If you want to spend your Apool time drunk as a skunk, and then shoot for a Corpus slot so you can get out of the lease easier, try this place.

In the end, theres much nicer places that are comparable in price, in that same exact area your looking. Try Governers Gate. Lots of flight students there. Or even Crestview at Oakleigh, that place is the same ownership but much nicer place overall. Crestview @ Cordova had a handful of military, and ALOT of starving college students. Not many flight students though.

Good input. Thank you all for information. I DO like the proximity to O'Reilly's and they say they're gonna put in new carpet for me. I liked the model. I liked the price. It will, after all, just be me and the occasional guest. I am shooting for Corpus for primary so I think this place might do. I do not like the fact that not many flight students live there but I don't want to pay 800+ for the same number of rooms as I am getting for the price they offer. The place seems nice enough. I think we shall see.

The South African bartender there is HOT.
