Floor Plans and the Real Price Per Square Foot
| Floor Plan | Beds/Baths | Sq Ft | Total Monthly Price | $/Sq Ft (low end) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A3c | 1/1 | 784 | $1,643 to $2,208 | $2.10 |
| A3 | 1/1 | 720 | $1,664 to $2,214 | $2.31 |
| A4 | 1/1 | 825 | $1,720 to $2,346 | $2.08 |
| A5 | 1/1 | 904 | $1,800 to $2,391 | $1.99 |
| C4a | 2/2 | 1,030 | $2,264 to $2,905 | $2.20 |
| C6 | 2/2 | 1,257 | $2,297 to $3,113 | $1.83 |
| D7 | 3/2 | 1,606 | $2,739 to $3,508 | $1.71 |
The 720-square-foot A3 floor plan starts higher per square foot than the larger 784-square-foot A3c. Unit availability, not size, is setting the price at the low end this month, according to the property’s live Apartments.com listing feed.
Why Two Units of the Same Floor Plan Cost Different Amounts
Three A3c units are on the market at 784 sq ft each: one at $1,643 (available September 5), one at $1,678 (July 11), and one at $1,788 (July 4). The unit available soonest costs the most. A4 breaks that pattern: its cheapest unit ($1,720) is available now, while a pricier one ($1,905) doesn’t open until July 7. Floor level and view aren’t published on any listing feed for this property, so timing explains part of the spread and an unlisted variable explains the rest.
Why do two apartments with the same floor plan cost different amounts? Unit-level pricing on this property moves with move-in timing more than with the floor plan itself; a 784-square-foot A3c ranges from $1,643 to $1,788 depending on which of the three available units you take.
The True Monthly Cost Beyond Base Rent
| Fee | Amount | When Charged |
|---|---|---|
| Application fee | $75/applicant | One-time, at application |
| Administrative fee | $150/unit | One-time, at application |
| Security deposit | $500 | One-time, at move-in |
| Trash admin fee | $2.50/mo | Monthly, already folded into the total price above |
| Utility billing | Varies | Monthly, methodology set in the lease |
| One-time pet fee | $300/pet | If applicable |
| Monthly pet rent | $25/pet/mo | If applicable |
| Assigned covered parking | $25/mo | Optional |
| Detached garage | $175 to $200/mo | Optional |
Data drawn from the property’s Fees and Policies listing. Take the cheapest available unit, the $1,643 A3c. Spread the $225 in application and admin fees over a twelve-month lease and that adds $18.75 a month. Add one pet at $25 monthly rent plus the $300 one-time fee amortized the same way ($25 a month total) and a $25 covered parking spot, and the realistic monthly number is $1,711.75, about $69 above the advertised starting figure.
What’s the real total I should budget beyond the listed rent? For the cheapest current unit, plan on roughly $1,712 a month with one pet and a parking spot, not the $1,643 headline number.

| Bush Middle School | Middle | 6-8 | 5/10 |

What Residents Say
Apartments.com’s aggregate for this property stands at 4.2 out of 5 across 48 reviews (22 five-star, 21 four-star, 1 three-star, 3 two-star, 1 one-star). A separate, independent set of 33 reviews on ApartmentRatings.com gives a clearer picture of what that average is built from. Maintenance response draws consistent, specific praise across multiple reviewers, several naming staff by name for fast turnaround. Office-side experience splits: some residents credit specific leasing staff with a smooth move-in, while others describe a disconnect between friendly maintenance and a less responsive front office, and more than one review flags unclear or inconsistently explained charges. Noise reads as tolerable rather than quiet, rated 4 out of 5 in the site’s own noise category, with one resident noting the property’s water-saving washer settings sometimes require a second cycle.
- Consistently praised: maintenance speed and specific named staff.
- Consistently flagged: billing transparency and inconsistent office responsiveness.
- Mixed: noise, described as generally tolerable with occasional disruption rather than a recurring complaint.
What do residents complain about most? Fee and billing transparency, and inconsistent office-staff responsiveness, come up more often than any complaint about the units or grounds themselves.
How It Compares to the Nearest Alternatives
| Community | Address | Starting Total Price | Unit Mix / Sq Ft | Built | Standout Feature |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMLI on Riverside | 310 Gran Via | $1,643 to $3,508 | 1 to 3BR, 720 to 1,606 sq ft | 2015 | LEED Gold, USGBC-verified 2017 |

Alta Riverside opened in 2024 as the newest supply in this immediate cluster, and its studio starts $162 below AMLI on Riverside’s cheapest one-bedroom, though it trades away 235 square feet and the LEED certification. AMLI at Escena, built four years before AMLI on Riverside, prices its cheapest studio $299 below AMLI on Riverside’s cheapest one-bedroom.
Lease Terms and the Cost of Flexibility
Leases run 3 to 13 months. Short-term leases inside that range typically carry a premium over a standard 12-month term, though this property’s own pricing feed doesn’t break out the exact per-term surcharge by floor plan.
Is a shorter lease worth the higher price? Only if the flexibility has a dollar value to you greater than whatever premium a 3-to-6-month term adds; ask the leasing office for the specific term-by-term pricing, since it isn’t published.
