First off, what was claimed in other reviews, the "imposing figure" that Capital Towers presents is fast dwindling due to the much more imposing buildings rocketing up in North Hills. Second, while they perform what seems to be quarterly inspections for bedbugs, my friend hasn't heard of them finding any and she's lived there for 3 years. Let's not confuse inspecting for bedbugs with having them - most places don't even bother with those inspections. For the rest of the building, it was built with HUD dollars back in the early 70's and it targets low income residents, so if you're expecting the Four Seasons you're not living in reality. Rent (usually around $600-700) includes utilities, use of their library, regular mini-bus transportation to grocers and retailers, donations from food banks, often sweeping views of Raleigh, and other amenities. It's within walking distance of 2 grocery stores, a pharmacy, movie theaters, banks, and countless restaurants and retailers. If you or your parents spent their work life serving others and not their bank accounts, and are independent in most aspects of life, there is no better place in Raleigh, or Charlotte for that matter. It's an older building that needs updating, but if that were done rents would rise and that would not serve their residents. In a nutshell, for what one gets for the money, this is a pretty good deal. If you have a lot of money then it's probably not for you.
