Fire Chief Paul Berardi says the fire appears to have started outside near cars and carports, then caught the apartment building on fire.
"It's really scary. I didn't have a clue. I was shaking," said resident Bina Lasich. "You don't know what's going on. Your main concern is getting out, the rest you have insurance."
Crews say at least three apartments are severely damaged.
At least ten adults and two children are displaced and are seeking shelter at the nearby Red Bridge YMCA.
One resident was worried about a dog that was left inside the burning apartment, but the dog was later rescued.
