8181 Med Center, Houston TX

Very tidy and well planned apartment, equipped with all the necessary amenities. Spacious bed and bath. Responsible and attentive on-site staff.

I’ve been living at 8181 Med Center for just over 4 years and I’ve loved every minute of it. It’s convenient for me, near downtown, and there’s so many fun things to do and many places to go in the area. The cons have been few and far between and the pros outweigh them all. I’ve overall truly enjoyed my stay here and can’t wait to create even more memories️.

We have been in this neighbourhood for 10 years. 8181 at med Center in the safest housing in this area. It is also the best one in terms of accessible public transportation of buses, TMC transit Center, and metro train.

Stay away from 8181 Med Center, very unsafe apartment complex, almost daily robbery and break-ins. I witnessed many incidents and i though it will never happen to me and i did the mistake of not moving out till it happened during day time, i came from work and found some one broke into my apartment and stole all my valuable belongings. I met with the manager and she was very careless and irresponsible, she was laughing that they don't have any cameras and the insurance i pay monthly with the rent just cover the building and doesn't cover any personal loss. I moved out the same day.
Don't do the same mistake, don't wait because it will happen to you sooner than you expect.
BTW most of the good reviews are paid, they offer pizza, donuts and other stuff if people write a 5 star review.

Trash everywhere! And residents paying for a trash service like 20$? And there's still trash let alone seeing people from VALET LIVING walk by and not even pick up the trash what is the point of paying for a trash service

MedCenter has a great community and Living here was very convenient to me, near to TMC. Helpful staff members and clean and safe place to stay.

I was surprised the customer service was so good when I told them I wouldn’t move for another year. Most places just hand you a list of prices. Here they took their time to review their floor plan options and additional fees! Cant wait to come back here!

Loved the place when I toured. Ronald helped me out tremendously with the application process. It was quick and was able to move in in a few days

8181 Med Center is a home away from home for me ️ Leaving the Natural State few months ago, it has been a big adjustment for me living on the 4th largest city of this country. But the cozy, peaceful and wonderful environment of the community helped me a lot. The rooms are well maintained and look like newly renovated and I just love the location of my unit. The property overall is always kept clean and its pet friendly too. With security personnel roving 24/7, it’s safe in here. I have been referring this place to my friends coming from other states and definitely to anyone looking for a great apartment for a reasonable price! Also thank you to Anthony for assisting us always! Great job!

8181 Med Center is a great community, very peaceful, with great amenities and staff that care about their residents.
I’m glad to call this my new home and look forward to staying and enjoying all its features.

It's a great apartment complex, with reasonable rates. It's very clean and the maintenance staff are quick to respond. Good amenities and location. Would recommend.

One of the dirtiest places I've ever rented. Management is almost nonexistent, arrogant, rude. And it is now crime-ridden. Apt across from us got robbed and vandalized 2x in one day. "This is Houston, " manager Vivian said, shrugging her shoulders. They would not increase security which is why neighbors got robbed the second time just a few hours after the first robbery. And the "ministry" out of Memorial Drive Presbyterian Church (subleasing apartments to MDAnderson patient families, which effectively makes us supporters of their ministry because occupants write the checks but get no response from the management since we are not the official tenant) is no more responsible or diligent than the apartment management. Very nasty, demanding that I not communicate with the management. There is nothing they can do - "call the police, " Marcia D said. It's really the worst of all scenarios. We pay for the apartment rent but get no service from the providers. Everyone says, "we can't be responsible. " And they're right - they are each irresponsible.

Worst management I have ever seen. Rude staff. Even with parking tag, they tow your car. My car had a one tire puncture, I was away for few days, didn’t get a chance to notice it. They towed my car and now they are asking me to pay 300$. Worst management I have ever faced. This is the good way to trick residents and earn money. The time limit to fix the car is not mentioned into the lease and nobody told me when I started here. When I started arguing regarding any email notification, or notice ahead to fix the issue they said we dnt have time as there are 6500 apartments.they email all the time for stupid things but not for the important issues. What a good illegal way to trick residents and earn money. I am impressed

Nice apartment community to get robbed!

It is easy to get fooled with this apartment community. The apartment rents are high compared to neighboring communities in the same area. For this higher rents, the apartments and the community are very neat and well maintained. This is where all the good things about the community come to a screeching halt.

It is easy to get fooled with this apartment community. Since the community is well maintained, at least looks wise, many people fall into the trap, just like I did. I am staying in this community from last 5 months and there was a break-in and my whole apartment got ransacked. I lost most of my valuables and to top it off, the monthly insurance that I am paying for the community on top of the high rent doesn't cover personal property damages - so I am told after the incident.

The worst part is, this is the 3rd break-in in the same building in the last 4 months and we are very close to the leasing office. The burglars even took away my security camera. We got the burglars on video on the neighbors doorbell and even after providing these video proofs to the community management, they are acting indifferent. The burglars are the same people who work within the community for the lawn services or the Valet living services. The community has zero security cameras and did nothing for all the consistent break-ins that are happening.

Please read all the lowest rating reviews (they tell the real story) of this community before making the decision to move-in. Move to this community to pay very high rents and get robbed, no kidding!
