Pathways

I absolutely love living here! My fiancée and I moved here 3 months ago and everyone is so friendly. This place is very quite, staff is amazing and they keep up the grounds beautifully. I’m glad to call this place home.

Thanks to the incredible maintenance crew for your prompt, professional and skilled work.

Really impressed with the maintenance crew at Pathways. I put in a request for my washer to be fixed on their online portal and they were at my door and ready to fix it, same day. Thank you Luissin for your great service!

Pathways @bixby are to be great so far for fulfilling my maintenance request promptly. The maintenance employee Luissin P. is very handy and can fix virtually anything. I give him 5 stars by as for the apartment itself requires a different post.

I have lived here for more than 3 years. I love this place. Great for pets. The gym and pool are always kept clean and up to date. The staff here are awesome. Whenever there is a problem they are quick to respond with whatever it may be from a broken washing machine to a replacing an old AC unit. They are always trying to do things with the tenants from pot lucks to movie nights.

Officer are really nice and helpful, they are love coming and help, thanks Gus and Luissin, they are so nice !!!

I’m reading a lot of complaints about pathways, but let me come out and say that we have had nothing but good experiences with the staff and management. We are about to sign for our 3^rd year here and we have elected to move to a different unit. The management has made the transition completely painless. Sure it may be pricey for some, if you’re a college student with no job or trust fund as a safety net, but it’s cool, no one expects you to get a high paying job in OR out of college. For graduated adults with careers and pets, this place is perfect. The vending machine by the pool is especially convenient for a late night snack. Pathways for the win. Suck it, haters. To all those who complained about insects or pests… It’s called keeping a clean home. If you clean up after yourselves, you won’t get vermin. Plain and simple.

I moved to Pathways 6 months ago and I love it here. My apartment location is great and I have quiet neighbors. I feel safe walking my dog, even in the early mornings before work. The staff in the front office are very professional and helpful. I had a water leak in my apartment and the maintenance staff fixed the problem quick. I love having a washer and dryer in the unit and the complex location is great. The rent is reasonable for everything the complex has to offer, but I am hopeful it does not go up too much when my lease ends. Overall, this is a great complex and I am happy that I moved here.

My boyfriend and I moved in during the summer and the past months living here have been comfortable. I looked through over 20 other apartment complexes throughout Long Beach, Brea, and Fullerton and found that this place had the best location, tucked away and quiet yet close to freeways, downtown, and other city hot spots. Not many apartments could offer this type of environment and the rent is comparable. I love my high ceilings and the fact that maintenance is super quick and efficient when I put in a request online. This is an extremely pet friendly environment with many neighbors walking their dogs at all hours; and parking is manageable. My washer and dryer outside the balcony offers the main convenience I was looking for while apartment hunting. While this may be an overall glowing review, there are some improvements that could be made, such as the fact that Verizon Fios is not available (but Charter has done well so far). Also, the mailmen that aren’t acquainted with the leasing office tend to leave packages at the doorstep rather than drop it off at the office for pick up.

Lily has been very helpful and understanding during my stay at Pathways. The staff has always been courteous and prompt when responding to any issues or questions about the apartment. The property was always clean and I enjoyed the movie nights by the pool and complimentary donut days. The gym and game room was always tidy and any broken equipment was fixed within a few days. I wish I could have stayed longer, I will miss my home at Pathways.

Pathways @ Bixby Village is a nice apartment complex located in a well kept neighborhood called Bixby Village. The management staff is always friendly and have been quite helpful with all questions that I had so far. The maintenace staff is also friendly and prompt with all our maintenace needs.
The apartment complex is abit aged but renovations are defintely noticable and the finishes look much better than some of the other apartments that we looked at. People should always be aware that noise will always be an issue with any apartment complex, it’s all dependent on your neighbors.
We moved to Long Beach for work relocation, so being able to get all the paperwork completed online was a +1, the staff was patient and helpful as we slowly finished our paperwork and paid for the first rent while we were still living in Norcal.
There are donuts on weekends, I think Saturdays, and on occasions there are pizza movie nights at the pool. Who doesn’t like free food!
We do not regret choosing Pathways as our new home from our experience so far (3 months). It’s located in a nice neighborhood where you can feel safe coming home late at night and the staff is very nice and helpful.

Pathways is a nice apartment complex, but still just an apartment complex. What makes Pathways special is the staff. The office personnel are friendly and efficient. The maintenance crew are exceptional people. They are personable, quick to respond to emergencies and they get situations remedied in a timely manner.

Pathways’s staffs were patient, they helped me out. I highly recommend Margarita Gomez and Lily. And Gus and Luissin, they come to our apartment at the first time when we have some small glitches, and they are professional. They are willing to help you anytime. It is a good choice to choose here.

Definitely don’t recommend. First off, this place is overpriced. We looked at the model and it looked great. We moved in to find out the cabinet doors never stay on and so are constantly falling off (maintenance mentioned this was a common issue). The bathroom was a cave with a ceiling that dropped 1 – 2 feet from the rest of the apartment. Plus it was horribly ventilated and so we kept getting mold spots in the ceiling in there. You could hear the upstairs neighbors all the time. And we went through several upstairs tenants in the 16 months we lived there.
Worse is how they treat tenants. We needed to extend our lease a few months. They tried to raise our rent $ 900/​month in order to switch month to month. Then when we moved out, we were charged for four years worth of paint «life» even though we were only tenants for little over a year.
I’ve been in the rental market a while in LA. This is the apartment I’m the most disappointed in.

Pathways is a horrible place to live! Expensive… the dumpsters are always overflowing with trash… and there are roaches! Plus they raised my rent $ 140 after the first year lease was up. I renewed for one more year because of the hassle of moving but I definitely will not renew again. Don’t rent here!

I was looking to move here because the location seemed perfect. It was close enough to the beach and the main drag, next to a golf course, there’s a grocery nearby, and overall it felt secluded. Not exactly cheap, but there were washer/​dryers in the unit (on the balcony, and the kitchens were spacious, when compared the to the other apartments next door, Channel?). There’s a a pool, rec room, and fitness room, which looked taken care of. The parking situation seemed fine and safe, overall it should have been perfect.
However, I’m always cautious when moving into large apartment complexes like these. Management is always super nice until you finally sign, at which point it’s like Jekyll and Hyde. In this case, having talked to 3 current residents and a handful of past residents this is exactly the case here. I was a little suspicious at first and as it turns out my suspicions were correct. Apparently, some of my good university friends used to live here until they got unfairly evicted because management illegally claimed they owed back rent, which they absolutely did not. The current residents I talked to (I walked around the complex and interviewed anyone I saw walking around) told me similar stories that occurred and/​or is occurring to them even now. Apparently this place is too good to be true — typical, large apartment group bullying the smaller resident.

I accompanied a family member in search of a new apartment due to relocation. The property was lovely, the staff accommodating. What was excluded in the info detailed is that they have a «computer» which arbitrarily ascertains your rent and deposit. This amount fluctuates weekly, and the promised «move in deal» quickly dissolves the moment you arrive on property. When this anomaly was brought to the attention of the staff, they robotically deferred to said computer (Hal?). In summary, keep driving. You can do better, get more square footage and avoid a business that is blatantly usurious.

Rats!!! Run. We were there more than a year, and they let us out of our lease because the rats came into our apt and we could hear them at night in the rafters and between the walls.

I was so bummed to move out of pathways due to a new job. The pool and jacuzzi were great and my apartment was awesome! Leasing Manager Kathleen Gomez was the best! Always attentive to all our needs, big or small, even once walked to my apartment just to make sure my patio door was closed! If your thinking about moving here, do it! It’s safe, super nice and has a great leasing team. Will for sure recommend!

The Great: David in the Maintenance Dept. He’s the nicest guy ever and makes sure everything we need gets done right the 1^st time! David you made our stay at pathways a Maintenance Free Affair. Thank you for every thing you did to make our small apartment feel like a home.
The Good: All the staff are friendly there from the groundskeepers to the office staff and engineering/​maintenance. My wife and I loved the pool and heated Jacuzzi. Loved the location being close to everything but not congested. The complex is extremely quiet and has security patrols at night. that is a plus anytime.
The Bad: The floors are super thin we could hear our neighbors upstairs walking from the minute we moved in to the day we moved out. If that sort of thing bugs you you might consider a different spot to live. No A/​C in the bedroom on a hot night makes for a long night.
