Indian Acres is a friendly, delightful community that sits about four miles northeast of downtown Albuquerque. The weather is mild to hot and sunny nearly year round, and the surrounding landscape is a mix of urban, suburban, and developed desert. Cars abound, although Indian Acres is very flat, so it's both bikeable and walkable. Local buses are a good alternative for those looking for public transportation.
Downtown Albuquerque is also the main rail and transit hub for all of New Mexico. Homes for rent in Indian Acres are 11 minutes from Greyhound, Amtrak, and local surface lines, such as the Rio Metro Bus Service. The Grower's Market, also situated downtown and running between April and November, is where most locals go for local produce, groceries, live music, yoga, and doses of community spirit. City-sponsored softball is a huge plus for sports fans.
Indian Acres has a distinct family atmosphere but welcomes everyone.

There are countless issues with these apartments. Constant water issues. You won't have hot water for days, sometimes you have no water at all, do to the constant water shut offs. Homeless people everywhere. Your car is not safe here, neither from break-ins nor from the predatory people they have patrolling the apartments. They can boot your vehicle at whim and you have no recourse of action. Either pay the fee or get towed. They act like they own the place and the apartment manager lets them because they get a kickback from the fees. The buildings are falling apart, it feels like you are going to fall through the floor. Even my tiny little self feels like I'm going to crash into the apartment below me. The maintenance is terrible, nothing gets fixed. Do yourself a favor and live under a bridge, you will have better amenities and service than you will get here.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review
We are truly sorry to hear about your less-than-excellent experience and appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the hot water issue. We did our best to communicate clearly with residents and offer assistance during this challenging time. Regarding the recent car break-ins, we understand how frustrating and upsetting this can be. While preventing theft can be difficult, we continue to work hard to counteract these problems. Our parking services patrol the property regularly, and as outlined in the lease agreement, vehicles that are found with expired registration or without a visible parking permit are subject to being booted or towed. Please know that management does not receive any kickbacks from this service. Additionally, we have not had any instances where a resident has fallen through their ceiling. However, if you feel there may be an issue in your apartment, please reach out to us directly, and we will be happy to look into it and address any concerns.Thank you for your understanding, and we are here to help with any further issues you may have.

We actually like living here. However, rent keeps going up, we don't get up to date calls on our issues and there's always trouble with the water. There's a lot of people becoming homeless due to the rent going up every year. We're blessed to have a place to live for now.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. After reviewing our records, we do not see any outstanding work orders for your apartment. However, we would like to resolve this issue promptly. Please feel free to contact us directly at (505) 884-3752 at your earliest convenience, so we can address any concerns and work toward a solution. We look forward to hearing from you.
The apartment wasn’t really ready to be leased. This is my third week living here, and every single day, I’ve had to go to the office to request maintenance for something in my unit. I had a water leak in my bathroom sink, which prevented me from using the tap for 4 days. It took multiple requests before they finally sent someone to fix it. There are cockroaches in the apartment, and despite weekly pest control visits, the problem persists. Now, for almost two weeks, the entire complex has been without hot water. I’m beyond tired and incredibly frustrated at this point. It seems the management is neither responsible nor attentive to their tenants’ needs.

Desert Creek is a timeless apartment complex that has been in Albuquerque since the 1970's. The apartments are being upgraded with new carpet, paint, and flooring all the time as people are moving in and out. They are spacious for the price. Honestly, I love my apartment, management, and maintenance team. Oh yeah, the location is great too!!!

We love our new apartment so much bigger then our last apartment. My son loves the carpet loves to run around and has his own room. We like how pest control comes more often and the office ladies are very helpful and polite. Only thing I'd say needs working is maintenance with fixing issues inside the apartments.

Hi there - thanks for your lovely comments about our office staff. We'll be sure to let them know they went Beyond Expectations! Thank you for the feedback regarding our maintenance team as we are always looking for ways to improve.
I'm disappointed in Desert Creek as a resident here that there is a cockroach infestation issue, heating/cooling issue/water shut off issue/water heating and cooling issues - the list feels ongoing with a new thing that pops up every couple of weeks. The maintenance team doesn't communicate what they have done when something is fixed in the apartment. They do not maintain a clean work area after they have "completed" their work in the apartment. Nothing is every truly "fixed."

Desert Creek has been very helpful, informative, clear and concise with information and resources available to the renter. Everything necessary for moving in was perfectly crystal clear and very defined. No hidden messages or back fees. They also let me know if any updates going on with the apartment, and helped me get lower rates for my apartment before I moved in, giving me an incredible price per month for my place.

No hot water, cockroach infestation with cockroaches in our bed when we sleep at night, AC doesn’t work. It has been a rough couple of months. Things aren’t getting fixed timely either.
Property Manager at Desert Creek Apartments, Responded To This Review
We'd like very much to work with you to resolve this, so if you're willing to discuss, please reach out to us at desertcreekmgr@greystar.com and we'll figure it out together.
Staff is friendly, however everything is always broken (hot water heater, electricity, fan, heat, air conditioning, and more.). Water is turned off every week due to some kind of maintenance. I have had two incidents were the resident above me flooded the apartment, so it came into my apartments causing leaks, damage, mold, and the removal of my ceiling fan and where my electrical outlet in my bathroom no longer works. I will not be renewing my lease unless I am able to move to a different apartment with upgrades such as a 1 br 1ba at the same price I am paying now, in leiu of all the issues that have occurred here during my stay.

Desert Creek is the only apartment complex that treated us like people when we were looking at apartments. It is one of a few apartment complex that does not have a crazy priced pet rent for large dogs. Just like everywhere else when rent goes up it is manageable they tell you way in advance to.

I have never been so stressed out with management at an apartment complex, I have lived in apartments most of my life and this by far the worst experience I have ever had at any apartment I’ve ever lived. I had been towed twice because the numbers on the reserved parking spaces were unable to be seen. My apartment gets flooded when it rains, the heating and cooling system is extremely out of date and it over flows with water cause of moisture and it doesn’t cool the house at all! The complex is infested with roaches I’ve been trying to kill them with a powerful roach gel poison that’s very expensive and it still doesn’t deter them, there’s mice! My neighbors are very inconsiderate, they barbecue in front of the apartment and don’t clean up after themselves, I’ve had my food orders stolen from my front porch. The neighbors hygiene is so bad it’s unbearable to walk passed them just to get to my apartment. I do not believe management is out for our best interest nor do they care about people’s living conditions.

Hello Artemus, we are disappointed to see your low star rating. Per our phone conversation we would be more than happy to try and make this situation better and are working towards a resolution.
We moved here this year. I was disappointed in the townhomes readiness however the management and staff were on top of things to get us settled in. I’ll never forget the excellent treatment to my wife and family as I was stuck in El Paso with Covid. They helped this move go smoothly and professionally. Every complex has their pros and cons but I can honestly say desert creek works hard to keep up with their residents and building maintenance. Thank you again!

The apartment is ok for a studio. Would be better with no carpet. The pool is closed on Sundays when I would use it the most. It seems to be closed more then open. The hot tub has never been open. But overall nobody bothers me so it's quiet for the most part. The staff is great at communicating issues with email and notices on the door. Maintenance has been great when I needed them.

Hi, thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We regret that you had a negative experience, and will use this as an opportunity to improve.
Desert Creek is close to being worth the money you pay. I just wish they would find a way to keep the water on for more than a week and to actually fix the cockroach problem.
