How much is rent for an apartment with parking in East Moline?
How many apartments with parking are available for rent in East Moline?
East Moline is widely considered to be the fourth but not the final of the Quad Cities. Today, there are actually five cities within the Quad Cities grouping: East Moline, Moline and Rock Island in Illinois, and Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries there was a lot going on in the Illinois-Iowa region. During that time, East Moline was added to the Tri-City area, which included Moline, Rock Island, and Davenport, and the region was renamed the Quad City area. Interestingly, a fifth city of Bettendorf was added to the Quad City area in the late 1940s, but the term Quint City wasn't nearly as catchy as Quad City, so the name Quad City stuck around even though the number of cities increased.

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some East Moline apartments offer parking options, either outside in a common area or within a private garage.
Ask about the stipulations around the parking. Those may include how many guests are allowed and where tenants park.
Some apartments may only allow parking in front of your own unit. Guest parking may be in a common area for up to one person.
If parking is scarce, look around the area before you sign a lease. Ample street parking in a neighborhood championed for its safety is probably fine. However, it’s probably not worth signing a lease if it means battling for daily parking for you and your guests.
Research whether you need a city permit to park in the neighborhood. Look into the associated costs and what to do about visitors who need parking.
Some tenants prefer garage parking near their units. However, an open-air lot may prove cheaper.
Keep in mind that the cost of wear and tear from parking outside can add up. It may be less expensive, in the long run, to look for an apartment with garage parking.
