  I've only lived here a month, but so far so good. Let's start with the pros. Elan East is walking distance to neighborhood coffee shops, sugar mama's bake shop with a close HEB/Fiesta nearby. It's also less than 10 minutes to downtown. Mercedes and Matthew have been very helpful each time I ran into them in the leasing office or through phone. The club house (?) has good strong coffee and though I haven't tried out the pool yet, I'm looking forward to it when it gets unbearably hot. Most (except two) of my requests have been taken care of. Valet trash is really valet trash... not like where you still have to take it to the trash close by. And it's usually safe unless my fob key doesn't work and I can't get in (though this has been resolved). The complex seems really great at communication/newsletters.
  
  The only con I have is that my oven temperature isn't correct. It's ridiculous that it takes more than an hour to preheat to what should be the correct temperature based on my oven thermometer. It goes up to 300 just fine, but anything higher than that takes 30 minutes - two hours. I s'pose with "winter" coming soon, I'll use my oven as a heater since I'll be baking some holiday treats anyway. That's sort of a pro? Except in the summer, it'll be hot and my electricity bill will skyrocket.
