I live in the state of CA, and I want/need to move to due the recent crime activity in my apartment complex, including a few recent shootings. When I moved in a little over a year ago it was a very quiet area, no shootings, or racial crime but within one month things have changed overnight. The complex keeps telling me that if i leave before my lease term is up on January 31,2009 then i will still be responsible for the rent amount until they can rent my apartment (currently about 20 vacant) The problem that I am finding with this is that on my rental agreement that I signed it only states that "either party can terminate this agreement with 30 day written notice" there is nothing on there, that I am able to find, indicating that i have to pay the rent for the months that I will no longer be living there. Either until the term is up or they find a new tenant. What can I do to get out of the current apartment complex without being penalized because I am fearing for my life?? Please Help ME!
