Independence Place At Fort Benning

Do not live here. The ladies at the front office are incompetent. The internet is down about half of the time. There is never any parking. You will be robbed blind by their outrageous rent and fees (4 guys x585=$2340/month... You could live in a mansion for that!!!)...They will bury you in move out fees and phony cleaning fees. The neighbor hood outside of the gates is terrible. Very high crime, lots of drugs. There is nothing close to the complex. It is an island in the middle of the ghetto. They some how manage to charge electricity and water even if you have not been in the apartment for months (all 4 of us that lived there were still getting hit with usage fees when we were at Ranger school). The living space is tiny, the grounds are usually trashed, and Sand Hill Gate to get on post is only open from 5am to noon. Additionally, the complex is an island in the middle of a trashy ghetto neiborhood. BPT drive through trash to get wherever you need to go. Read More

I used this apartment as a temporary place to stay, knowing that my unit was to deploy within months of my moving in to the complex. I made the managers aware of the upcoming deployment as well, and they still didn't want to return the security deposit to me due to the ...fact that I ended up deploying in Oct when originally I was to deploy in Sep. They told me it was because they had to hold the apt for an extra month. They were charging me for a whole month's electricity when I was gone for the full month on leave, and it was actually my roommate that was using the electricity. The roommate never ended up paying the bill because the manager never made the roommate responsible for it. I would not reccommend this place to ANYONE. Read More
