Frequently Asked Questions

City Guide for Oak Island, NC

Both the town and island bearing the name Oak Island have survived multiple hurricanes only to be rebuilt stronger than before. Hurricane Hazel in 1954 did the most damage, destroying all but five buildings on the island. Severe damage was also caused by hurricanes Diane in 1984, Bertha and Fran in 1996, and Floyd in 1999. But don't fret! It's been 15 years since the last one, so residents are happy and scrappy in Oak Island as ever.

There's more than one Oak Island off the coast of North Carolina near the South Carolina state line. There's the barrier island in Brunswick County, and then there's the quaint seaside community known as Oak Island, which is partially located on the island, and partially on the mainland. Confusing? Don't worry, any resident of one of the communities--Oak Island or Caswell Beach--on the island will be happy to explain it to you. Or give you directions. Or tell you the best place to get fresh seafood. Or tell you why living there is miles better than living in the"big cities" of Wilmington, North Carolina, or Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. You might not even have to ask. Locals are so friendly, they'll probably just start offering up information as soon as you sit down at the diner, coffee shop or while strolling on the beach. The town of Oak Island was formed by joining the two communities of Long Beach and Yaupon Beach in 1999. While the year-round population is a cozy 6,783 according to the 2010 census, the summer population typically balloons to about 50,000. Not bad for a stretch of beach 10 miles long and about a mile wide. View Oak Island City Guide

What to keep in mind when looking for apartments with garages in Oak Island, NC

Oak Island 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.
