Quincy Apartment Complexes — Pros & Cons From Real Resident Reviews
2 communities reviewed · Updated Jul 2026
Quincy, the Gadsden County seat about 20 miles northwest of Tallahassee, has a small apartment market built almost entirely around income-restricted communities rather than market-rate luxury properties.
As of mid-2026, Quincy apartment rents run from roughly $920 for an older one-bedroom to about $1,290 and up at the newest community, with both of the city's multifamily properties operating under income-qualification guidelines.

Florida renter essentials
Renters insurance is not optional here. Most Florida leases require it, and standard policies do NOT cover flood damage — that needs a separate flood policy, even in an apartment. Before signing, look up the building's flood zone on FEMA's flood map service and ask which evacuation zone it sits in.
Ask about the real monthly cost. The most common complaint in Florida apartment reviews isn't noise — it's fee stacking: valet trash, common-area electric, mandatory bulk internet, pest control, admin and tech fees. Get the full itemized monthly figure in writing before you apply.
Tour with the AC running and ask about hurricanes. Humidity control is the difference between a fine unit and a moldy one; ask how old the AC is. And ask directly how the building handled the last major storm — communities that performed well say so happily, and reviewers call out the ones that didn't.
