City Guide for Marlow Heights, MD

Marlow Heights is just 2.1 square miles in size, but it does have its own claim to fame. It's home to what was, at its opening in 1967, the first enclosed shopping mall in the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area!

Marlow Heights is an unincorporated area and census-designated place located in Prince George's County, Maryland. With a population of just 5,618 as of the 2010 census, it's certainly small, and might be more accurately called a neighborhood or suburb, but it's located within the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria metropolitan area, and a drive of less than 30 minutes will put you right in the heart of DC.

What to keep in mind when looking for apartments with hardwood floors in Marlow Heights, MD

Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Marlow Heights renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.

However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.

Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.

It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.

Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.

However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
