You can usually tell by the upkeep of the apartment building. As far as your landlord's character try talking to some of the other tenants.
That's called subleasing, and it's frowned upon by the landlord, whose intentions in renting out the apartment is that he rents it to his lawful tenants, not to sub-tenants. You can be evicted if you break this rule on the lease.
You should consult with the landlord/leasing company to see what is offered to prospective tenants and what is required from vacating tenants at each property.
Complaining is not illegal.
The rent of an apartment can be raised as often and as high as the landlord feels like. All he has to do, is give prior notice to the tenants.

Yes. That's the short answer, but it's usually a condition of your lease.
You will be held legally responsible for the lost rent on the apartment PROVIDED that the landlord makes a reasonable effort to re-rent the apartment. A reasonable effort would be considered running an ad in the newspaper, placing a Craigslist ad, posting the apartment on apartments.com, etc. However, the landlord is not obligated to lower the rent or rent the apartment to tenants who do not meet the landlord's reasonable screening standards.
Tenants have the right to complain about other tenants that are disruptive. If the landlord fails to act, then the tenants may take their complaint to the government department that that oversees Landlord Tenant disputes. This department has the authority to compell the landlord to take action if they can't or won't do it on their own.
