Comedian Dennis Miller grew up in Castle Shannon. His acerbic stand-up act led to a television series, and among his most well known quotes is, "I rant, therefore I am."
Not far from the larger town of Mt. Lebanon and the major cultural enclave of Pittsburgh, Castle Shannon is a pleasant community of just over 8,300 residents that has ample public transportation and green space within its borders--no ranting necessary. Settled in 1786 by families seeking agricultural land and timber, the most impressive farm was named Castle Shanahan. The name eventually mutated to Castle Shannon. In 1872, the Pittsburgh and Castle Shannon Railroad line stimulated the town's growth by providing good transportation into Pittsburgh. View Castle Shannon City Guide
Castle Shannon 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.
