McKinleyville, CA 30 Apartments for Rent with Garages

The area was originally home to the Wiyot and Yurok people. The two culturally similar tribes were among the last native Californians to encounter European settlers since the Spanish missions fell hundreds of miles short of this northern edge of California. The Native Americans here were likely saved from the devastation of the fur trade thanks to their coastline not being a sea otter habitat. Eventually, however, even their way of life was ultimately utterly changed by the arrival of settlers in the mid-1800s who arrived in search of gold, to farm the land, and build great ranches throughout the latter portion of the 19th century. An infamous massacre of Wiyot occurred in 1860, news of which spread all the way to New York, thanks to the writer Bret Harte's detailed news accounts. Today, the remaining Wiyot have established the Table Bluff Reservation and are in the process of reviving their native language. View McKinleyville City Guide

McKinleyville apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.

Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.

It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.

Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
