Security Issues

[BradPolk]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida

My apartment complex/management company takes no responsibility for my personal security, stated in lease, there have 10 incidents on property in my 23 months. I feel like my safety is in danger and am trying to get out of lease, is this possibel? Also trying to get of lease by following their contract, this is what their contract states; Renewal: This lease will continue for one year after the initial Lease Term unless either you or we give the other at least 30 days' written notice of termination before the end of initial term. During the continuation term, either you or we may terminate the lease at the end of a calender month by giving the other not less than 60 days writen notice. We may increase the rent at the end of the initial term or during the cotinuation term by giving you not less than 70 days notice the begining of a calender month.

They are telling me that I can't use personal safety as an out nor can I get out of contract by following their guidelines. They are telling me the 60 days is just to not renew lease.

**A: the termination clause in the lease makes no reference for reasons for termination.
