Harmony Creek Apartments for Seniors 62 and over is a lovely community, but they have the worst cantankarous old bitches that fuss, talk about other people in little groups in the afternoon. Many people feel hurt after they have moved in because all the residents complain about everything. So sad, because it really is a nice apartment. All you can do is hope many of the ones that are so bitchey, just die off.
