Great apartment, great for students! So expensive

This is predominantly student housing. Maintenance is very responsive. It also always feels VERY safe. Unfortunately this place is very expensive.

Bugs but still recommend

Overall, a great place to live if you're going to med school. About a 30 min walk to TSCHE uphill, so not ideal for walking. However, both Duke bus and GoDurham bus get you to campus quickly and are extremely reliable, hardly ever run late. This building has a very nice gym with good cardio equipment including a Peloton! Overall, management is very responsive.

Great location for Duke med students

For Duke med students - the best part about living at the Heights is the convenience of having a Lasalle Loop bus stop right outside the building. It takes about 10 minutes or less for the bus to go from the Heights to a stop right outside of the medical school building.

The Heights

My favorite things about my apartment at The Heights is the spacious bedroom and bathroom floor plan and how close it is to Duke University School of Medicine. As a medical student, I'm able to walk or take a bus to campus every day.

It's actually pretty good from all respective. Only thing that's not fine is people upstairs sometimes too loud.

Recommend

The apartment is safe, which is the most important issue. Besides, the management can reply to your requests pretty soon.

The drawback is that there is no restaurant near here.

Erwin - LaSalle Reviews

Reviewed by Duke Sanford Student living at The Flats at The Exchange on Erwin
It's been perfectly fine. People are nice but it's not much of a community, just a place where people live. Behind the Belmont which had a spate of robberies a few months back, but the Flats is further away from the main road and is better lit. So far no security incidents or concerns at the Flats. Affordability depends on which apartment complex you choose in the Erwin-LaSalle area. Wide range in rents, ranging from very expensive to very affordable depending on which one you pick.
Reviewed by Duke Med Student living at Chapel Tower Apartments
The broader neighborhood's chief attribute is convenience to Duke. A lot of students live in the apartment complexes around here. It can be inconvenient sometimes getting to a supermarket from the neighborhood, though (eventually they're going to re-open a Harris Teeter on Hillsborough, which should mitigate this issue somewhat).
Reviewed by Duke Med Student living at Trinity Commons at Erwin
The neighborhood was perfectly fine when I started living there, but recently there have been some armed robberies in apartment buildings that are about a 10 minute walk away. However, I would like to say that I have not felt unsafe walking home at night and the security at Trinity is quite high. For example, you have to use a special key to get into the lobby (where a security guard sits after dark) and then you have to use the key to get in from the lobby to where the rooms are, and then again to get into your room. There are about 10 good restaurants within walking distance ranging from greek food to Mexican food to sushi so it's great for a quick dinner when you don't want to cook. There is also a hair salon and a manicure place, as well as a Walgreens pharmacy. We are very close to Duke Hospital and the bus systems are very accessible.
Reviewed by Fuqua School of Business Student living at The Heights at LaSalle
The apartments are close to campus and easily accessible through bus, bike, or walking if desired. There is a nearby Kroger that is a less than 5 min drive away just up LaSalle St. Overall, there are some older apartments further up the road that have had issues with crime in the past, but The Heights and other apartments around the area seemed to be insulated from those issues.
Reviewed by Duke Pratt Student living at The Flats at The Exchange on Erwin
The food in the area is really accessible and I feel quite safe in the surrounding area, excluding the gas stations and bus stop. I've heard some odd things at night but never seen anything fishy and feel safe coming home at night. +Tons of dogs!
Reviewed by Fuqua School of Business, MBA Student living at Lofts at Lakeview
Lofts is right next to a few restaurants - TGIFridays, Chipotle, Enzo's, Noodles, Smash Burger, Sushi Love, etc. The Kroger grocery store is just a few minutes away, off of Lasalle. This is a quiet neighborhood.
Reviewed by Student living at The Belmont Apartments
Quiet neighbourhood. Conveniently located to West Campus and walking distance to Fuqua. Easy and healthy fast food options nearby. Close to food stores e.g. Kroger & Harris Teeter. Close to WaDuke trail.
Reviewed by Duke Sanford Student living at The Heights at LaSalle
Not the safest neighborhood and has little transit. There have been issues at other apartment complexes with safety, but Heights has been very safe. It is absolutely fine to walk around in the day here, but not at night. There are not very many restaurants or bars nearby, although downtown Durham is 10 minutes away.
