Scotts Valley, CA 116 Apartments for Rent with Garages

Nestled in the San Lorenzo Valley in Santa Cruz County, Scotts Valley is home to about 11,500 residents who appreciate the forest-like environs, easy access to Santa Cruz and San Jose, and a quality of life that makes it an easy city to love. Scotts Valley has been home to humans for over ten thousand years, with several iterations of native peoples living along the areas waterways and hunting and gathering. The city was eventually founded and took its name from Hiram Scott who bought the sprawling Rancho San Agustin. Scott purchased the land grant from a guy who bought it for $400 from our ship-jumping friend Volkov -- who was by then known as Jose Bolcoff. View Scotts Valley City Guide

Scotts Valley 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.
