At the heart of Missouri, Columbia is truly one of America’s greatest college towns. The University of Missouri sits right at the center of the city, and generally serves as the cultural hub for the wider community. Locals, whether connected directly to the university or not, regularly visit campus for sporting events, concerts, gallery exhibitions, lectures, and more. Just north of campus, Downtown Columbia features a thriving mix of coffee shops, restaurants, nightclubs, taverns, and performance venues, largely catering to the huge numbers of students from Mizzou, as well as the smaller Stephens College and Columbia College.
Of course, the community extends well beyond the collegiate environment at the city center. The University of Missouri Health Care system is the second-biggest employer in town, so the community of healthcare professionals in town is quite extensive. The cost of living is quite affordable, and there are numerous apartments and rental homes to fit any budget.

Property Ratings at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia
I’ve been here for the fall 24 semester and i’ve really enjoyed staying here. I have even renewed my lease and will continue to stay here for the next year. The amenities plus the fixed utilities rate and kind staff are all huge positives for me.
This is my second year living here and the maintence team is great. Very easy to communicate with staff, everyone is nice!
I’ve lived at the Adora townhomes for 2 years now! The complex is in a safe neighborhood on the south side of Columbia. They have a courtesy officer for safety, a quick and well mannered maintenance team if anything goes wrong, and the landscaping team keeps up very well! It’s a nice and clean community to live in. Very pet friendly! You see many people walking their dogs at night and the area is kept clean with many sanitary doggy clean up stations. The pool is a nice amenity during the summers and the hot tub is great for winter. The clubhouse and staff are always doing fun giveaways and keeping the community active with game nights seasonally. The shuttle is great if you are a college student and is always available. They provide quick text updates to the community if the office is closed or if there are treats at the office on special occasions so you don’t really miss out on anything. The gym is not too crowded and has 24 hour access which is rare in college complexes. Overall, it’s been a very nice and easy place to live. The staff are accommodating and really seem like they want to help and make the community a better place.
I have lived here for around two years now, and I love it! The buildings are well laid out, providing enough space in each bedroom, the kitchen is big enough to fit me and my roommates items, and it is in a quaint part of Columbia, making it nice to relax after classes!

We are incredibly grateful for your 5-star review and heartwarming feedback! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you've enjoyed your two years with us and found the design and location conducive to your needs as a student. Your satisfaction is our top priority, so it's wonderful knowing we have made your college living experience a positive one. Thank you for sharing!
This is my first year here, and I'm very happy. The rooms are very spacious, and I feel like I have so much room to decorate and store my things; the place I lived beforehand was half this size and charged me the same amount I pay currently. There have been issues with our water heater breaking, but both times, the issue was resolved within a few days. When we had other issues, they were resolved the same day or the next. The staff are very friendly, and the shuttle having 3 stops throughout the complex is incredibly convenient--especially in winter. I'm also a fan of the parking lot for our unit being directly outside my door.
Property Manager at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia, Responded To This Review
We are truly grateful for your positive feedback! It's fantastic to hear that you're making the most of the spacious rooms and finding our services convenient. We appreciate your patience with the water heater issue as we continue working hard to resolve any issues promptly. Our team takes great pride in providing friendly service, so they'll be delighted by your recognition. Thank you again for choosing us as your home!
After a few months of living at the Adora, I have enjoyed my experience to resign for the next leasing term. Overall, I appreciate the amenities and maintenance staff the most. I appreciate that maintenance is quick and efficient! Only issue that I have experienced so far would be the trash pickup. After numerous times of not having trash taken out (Yes, it was placed during the correct timeframes), we were unable to be taken out of the trash pickup service which is frustrating. Other than delayed or missing the trash pickup, I have enjoyed my time here. Amenities are great too with the office hosting many resident events, decent gym equipment, and hot tub / pool!
Property Manager at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia, Responded To This Review
We're truly pleased to hear that you've had an enjoyable living experience at The Adora! We sincerely appreciate your kind words about our townhomes, amenities, and maintenance staff. We apologize for any inconvenience you've experienced with the trash pickup service and want to assure you that we are addressing this concern. Your feedback is invaluable in our efforts to further improve our services. Thank you for choosing to continue your stay with us!
I enjoy this property very much I am signing up for my second year here. I have no complaints, only a very small one it being that my trash rarely gets taken out. This being the only complaint I am extremely grateful because the previous places I lived at I had so many complaints and problems. I enjoy living here very much. It's a very relaxing area and the staff is very nice. They do the best they can to help you out with any issues and maintenance is very quick and efficient.
Property Manager at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia, Responded To This Review
We are absolutely delighted to learn that you've had a wonderful experience in our community. It truly warms our hearts to hear such positive comments about the staff and maintenance team. Receiving feedback like yours makes it all worth it for us - thank you. Rest assured, we'll look into your minor concern regarding trash removal as we continuously strive to make your stay even better. We're looking forward to having you with us for another year!
I was in a 4x4. Tons of space throughout the whole apartment, large room and closet. Nice patio out back. It’s in a great part of town and near lots of things. The management was helpful and very nice. Maintenance has been quick to response, normally within 24 hours (the first week or two after move in was slow if it wasn’t emergent but that is understandable). The gym is very basic but good for a quick work out. The bus is back to the complex every 40 minutes and makes commuting very easy. The driver is also a great guy. Overall a nice place to live. It was cleaned well for move in although, there was some paint on door knobs and other random spots but overall definitely worth the price.
Property Manager at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia, Responded To This Review
We're thrilled to hear that you found our apartment spacious, well-located, and worth the price. It's excellent that you appreciated the quick response from our maintenance team and the convenience of our transportation service. We will note your point about the leftover paint for future improvements. Thank you for choosing us for your college life, we are grateful to have had the chance to serve you!
The adora has an amazing staff and very nice amenities, including trash service and free maintenance that usually show up pretty quickly. Overall 10/10 would recommend!

Great place for a college student to live. The units are spacious and modern. The gym is nice and there is a lot of grassy areas for pets. The maintenance staff has also been great. They’re quick to respond to requests and have helped us with issues we’ve had.

Property Manager at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia, Responded To This Review
Thanks for visiting! It means so much when customers share their positive experiences with us. Thank you for your review.
Seems great at first for the price, but it is so badly managed. There are only two maintenance guys for the whole complex, and with the cheap stuff they fill the apartments with they should really have a lot more. Management is non-existent and talking to somebody who can actually do something requires jumping through more hoops than that guy in Madagascar with the circus. The apartment is in awful condition, with the parking lot and amenities falling apart and your apartment seeming like it's soon to follow.
Property Manager at Townhomes by Element Communities Columbia, Responded To This Review
We’d like to apologize for the negative experience you had with us. We’ve taken your feedback and will work hard to implement needed changes. We'd love to make things right! Please reach out to us at your earliest convenience.
It’s a good place to live. Sometimes hard to communicate with the management but otherwise good. Wifi is iffy also.

The Adora Townhomes are awesome if you want a place not too far from campus that is inclusive and quiet! I love that the area around the Adora has lots to do and many places to eat at. There is a pool outside the clubhouse and a great 24/7 gym with weights, treadmills and a yoga/stretching room. The sand volleyball court is my personal favorite touch. The townhomes are spacious, which is especially nice if you live with 3 other people. Would definitely recommend checking it out!

I am a current resident here and love it, I've been here since August and the management team is amazing. The property is in a cozy, quieter area of southern Columbia with easy access to anything you could need, restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, etc. And I love the proximity to both Cosmo-Bethel and Rock Bridge parks for my dogs! A straight shot to the university also makes for a pleasant morning commute.

great customer service and upkept apartments! Maintanace is always prompt
So far me and my roommates have loved living here, the community is nice and we enjoy it a lot. We have had only a couple minor things but they were all taken care of in a quick manner. We have had nothing but a good experience.
Best place I’ve lived so far in college! The maintence men are great and we have a lot of space!
The clubhouse staff is always courteous and helpful, and offers lots of great events throughout the year. Only downside is our apartment was in bad condition when we got here and needed to be cleaned and have furniture replaced.
The kitchen and living room are huge. Great bedroom spaces with large closets!
I’ve really enjoyed the Adora. It’s been the best place I’ve lived so far. The management team in phenomenal and the maintenance staff is quick.
Amenities are great, quiet, spacious apartment, only downside would be the cell service. Other than that, great apartment.
This is my first year living here and it is super nice. The maintenance team is very helpful and always gets my work orders done within a couple days. Management is super helpful whether I call or walk-in. I highly recommend living here, it's very quiet so i do not have to worry about op cars or anything like that.
I love living at the Adora. Maintenance is always quick to fix things, everyone at the front are very nice and helpful, and i love having the space.
They do a fantastic job walking myself along with my roommates along the renewal process insuring we get the best deal and the same unit.
I have lived at adora for a year now and already renewed! Great staff, great amenities and it’s a calm and quiet spot to stay off campus. highley recommend!! me and my roomies love it here!
Can’t wait to live here!! Super nice and spacious. -Paige Kimmons
1. The renters make frequent downgrades. This school year they downgraded: Thermostat resulting in you being able to control it less Sinks and showers resulting in weaker water pressure for both And worst of all, toilets. They constantly break. Not clog, but break, cannot flush even though there is nothing clogging the pipes. As one person living in a 2 bathroom house, the toilets have broken 3 times and had to be fixed, which is made worse by: 2: Slow maintenance. In a house with 2 broken toilets, I have spent the past 3 days submitting multiple maintenance requests. No response despite this being an incredibly urgent request (sleeping is difficult with the strong odor of poop throughout the room, and oh yea, I can't use the bathroom). The management here is offensively horrible, and it's a shame such a nice looking place has such god awful management. Over the past year the price went up and the quality went down, and I assume that trend will continue. TLDR: The place looks very nice, but the management is not worth it, and before you're even halfway done with your contract you'll be trying to find ways to break it.
Management does little to resolve issues. Did not clean our unit before we moved in. Damages before we moved in weren’t fixed until we complained. Failed to lock our door after maintenance visit and no one was home. Would not resign if I had to.

Thank you for your feedback regarding the condition of your unit upon move-in. We pride ourselves on ultimate cleanliness and apologize we have not lived up to these standards. Since your review is anonymous, we would appreciate you reaching out to our office so we can get more details and address your concerns. Please stop by the leasing office or give us a call at 573.514.8722.
Break ins happen literally every week. As a young college student, I feel incredibly unsafe living here. Management doesn’t seem to care or do anything to reassure residents. They only care about money. I would give negative stars if I could.

Thank you for your feedback. We take what you are saying very seriously. Although we cannot guarantee your safety, we do not want you to feel threatened in your home so we appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.

Especially during these times we work closely with Signal88 and the Columbia Police Department to provide extra patrols and do our part to deter crime. We would love to speak more with you, but your review is anonymous. Please stop by the leasing office or give us a call at 573.514.8722 to speak with a manager.
WAS Fined $50 for broken blinds that a roommate caused (when their blinds are maybe the $10 kind). All their move out fees are outrageous and they're not understanding at all. The property was poorly upkept, and just bad quality overall.
I was paying my first month's rent through their online system and I accidentally added my check number to the account number(at the the time I did not know that). It accepted my payment however I got an email from management days later that my echeck was returned (due to my error previously mentioned)and that I would be charged $35 per my lease for a returned check. I immediately went to the office and explained to them that I had made a silly mistake since it was my first time using their system and asked how I could waive that $35 fee...First they said to call my bank because they are the ones who charged me that. my bank told me that it was THEIR bank that charged them the fee. AND THEN mgmt said call customer service to have it removed. I call customer service and they tell me that the online company I used to make the payment is the one to remove the fee but they don't have their phone number. How do you do business with a company but dont have their phone number?? So I told them to give me the company name and I would GOOGLE their number. they said it is actually the property manager that would have to call them to have the fee removed. So ONCE AGAIN I go back to them and now they want to act like they don't understand why I would be so upset that I have been given the run around numerous times and also got THREATENED to have $35 sent to COLLECTIONS and have the eviction process started while figuring out what to do.The property manager kept saying she didn't have the authority to waive the fee once I told her what Entrata said, she then switches to "well yeah I could just click a few buttons and have the fee removed but then we would be out of $35". Yes per my lease it says that a returned check is $35 however there are always exceptions to the rules and special circumstances. That is how you reward your tenants who dont cause you any problems and always pay their rent on time?? Cool. Well you can have the $35 since you clearly need it more than me. However, looks like y'all will be out A LOT more than $35 because I WILL NOT be renewing my lease and I WILL NOT recommend this place to anyone.Almost every employee I have come in contact with whether in person or over the phone has been rude and unprofessional. If you want to be respected and have your time and money valued, I suggest rent with another management. Do not trust these reviews that are only written RIGHT AFTER tours of the NICE models!!!!
DO NO SIGN WITH THIS COMPANY. Dealing with brookside has been a nightmare. I gave them my military orders and was told to sign an agreement that would release me from my contract 30 days later. At no time was I told that move out was at noon of the 31st nor was it on the new agreement. I went to the apartment on the 31st at 3pm to pick up the last of my belonging and i was locked out. When i went to the office, Courtney told me that they attempted to call me (no record of call) and because they could not reach me they emptied the apartment and trashed all of my remaining belongings.(I have several text messages from Courtney trying to have me resign a new lease, but on this day no one could make contact with me?) I pleaded with her for the map my late father gave me. After an hour she was able to find the map in a garage but said all of my other belongings were trashed. These included military documents neatly packed, and over 8 thousand dollars worth of things. My computer, bed set, valuable possessions that were passed on are all gone. There was no remorse by Courtney and she refused to direct me to someone else i could speak to. I have since taken a lawyer and working to sue for damages. I have not received an apology, closeout bill, or contact from the brookside Corporation. This is a caution tale. There are many companies in the COMO area do not deal with brookside.
The management does not keep the noise levels of tenants down. You will be subjected to late night parties and frequent visits from CPD
Very nice place to live with nice amenities! Confusing application process and pricing is kind of high but overall nice place!

The tour was very enjoyable and helpful. The application process was easy, and I had no issues. Loren was great. He was knowledgeable about any questions I had.
Everything has gone so smooth for signing the lease and I was even able to do it while I was abroad!

This is my favorite place I've lived so far! The manager is super helpful and the new rent payment system is so much better. highly recommend!
This is marketed as a college get away. But really its a costly money pit. They will over charge you for utilities with out proof. After you move out they will charge you for things you didn't do. The "maintenance" crew are unskilled college students. The lifestyle community bribes you with free food. If you're looking for a cheap looking place to live and you want to play way too much for it. Youve found it.
I love it here at Brookside! The staff are always so friendly and willing to go the extra mile for the residents. I couldn’t imagine living anywhere else!
