Hi,
I am moving to Rapid City SD towards the end of this year. I have been looking at some apartment complexes in the city, but wanted to know thoughts if they are good and safe especially since I am a female runner and like to run outdoor in the evening. Safety is extremely crucial especially since its there is very limited daylight in winters. Here's what I liked so far:
The Pines
Copper Ridge
Stoney Creek
Homestead Gardens
Harmony Heights
Any of them good and reasonable (price wise)?
Also, do any of the apartment complexes offer gas cooking range? (not a deal breaker but its nice to have gas)
Late seeing this, but FBI crime data says crime rate in zipcode 57701 is above national average and way above crime rate in zipcode 57702, which is well below national average.
Anywhere is southwest Rapid City would be fine. I see lots of women out jogging/walking alone in the neighborhoods around my house, even after dark. I'm not sure where all those complexes are buy Stoney Creek are would be fine for sure.
