Water break leaves Davie apartment residents struggling after days without water - WSVN 7News | Miami News, Weather, Sports | Fort Lauderdale

This is just crazy . I mean, how are you supposed to live without running water for THAT long? It's like they took away oxygen from everyone's lives. And what really gets me is that management is trying to blame the residents for using more than one unit of water . Like, hello, that's just basic human nature! We all use more water when we have access to it.

And don't even get me started on the people who had to stay in hotels . I feel so bad for them. $100 a night is not cheap . This whole situation is like something out of a movie. How can they justify this? It's just unacceptable .

I think we need some better infrastructure to prevent these kinds of situations from happening again. And maybe, just maybe, management should take responsibility for their actions instead of blaming the customers . This whole thing is just a total disaster .

ugh this is insane, 1 week without running water?! some ppl r literally having to use public restrooms i mean i get that pipes break but 16 ppl sharing one unit is just ridiculous, how are they supposed to keep themselves clean? and hotels for days on management's dime? thats not exactly fair either...

man, this is just crazy what's happening here. I mean, think about it - we take for granted things like running water, and then suddenly they're just gone. It's like, our whole sense of normalcy is disrupted. And you know what really gets me? It's not just the lack of water itself, but how it affects people's daily lives. Like, Dillon said, having to pay for hotels and eating out... that's just another layer of stress on top of an already stressful situation.

And have you ever noticed how quickly we adapt to scarcity? Like, once the initial shock wears off, people start finding ways to make do with what they've got. But it's like, our whole culture is built around this idea that everything should be easily accessible and convenient. And then something like this happens, and suddenly we're forced to reevaluate what we really need.

It's like, a water main break may seem like a minor issue at first, but it's really just a microcosm of the bigger problems we have in our society...

Ugh this is so frustrating ! Water is literally a human right and yet some ppl are still without it for days ! I feel bad for those residents at Centro Apartments , they're having to stay in hotels & eat out which is like, super expensive . Can't imagine not having hot showers or washing my face in the morning ! What's even more annoying is that management said it'd be fixed by Wed but it's been a week already ! Should be some kinda compensation for this inconvenience . This water main break is like, a total disaster !

This is just insane! A week without running water? That's like something out of a movie . I mean, I've heard of emergencies and whatnot, but this is ridiculous. 16 people sharing one facility? What kind of management are they even paying those people for? And no compensation? Like, how do you expect them to deal with the expenses of hotels and food when their basic needs aren't being met?

I need some actual stats here, like what's going on behind the scenes. Is this something that's been happening at other apartment complexes in the area too? And did anyone from management actually check in on these residents or is it just "we'll get to it eventually"?
