My wife and I lived in The Wooten for our first year here in Abilene, and we really enjoyed it. The building is kept very clean, and Melissa and Jerry do a great job of making sure all your needs are taken care of.
Our apartment was on the 16th floor so we had a great view of the city, and the surrounding area. The apartments are very spacious and our one bedroom was a little over 900 sq. feet.
Inside the apartment we had a stackable washer and dryer inside of what I considered the front closet. This did limit us to only having the closet in our bedroom to store most of our things.
Living downtown made getting food, drinks, and going out very convenient. There are a few bars and even more restaurants popping up. I feel like we moved out, as downtown was really starting to grow. Never having to worry about taking an UBER when going out was great because we could literally walk to most places.
A few things that aren't a reflection of The Wooten itself but worth mentioning are:
1. The train is 4 blocks away and is very loud at times.
2. Cars trucks motorcycles and emergency vehicles can also be very loud at times.
3. Bringing in groceries and furniture can be a hassle due to having to use the elevators.
Overall it was a great experience and our neighbors were great.
I recommend living here!
