Nanticoke, Pennsylvania is the birthplace of the S.H. Kress stores, the chain of original "five and dime" department stores in business from 1896 to 1981. The town gets its name from Nantego, the name of the Native Americans who moved there in the 1600s.
The 10,465 people living in Nanticoke live about 8 miles southwest of Wilkes-Barre, PA. As is the case with a substantial portion of PA, over half its housing stock falls in the older/historic age range having been built prior to 1940. While this does present challenges to traditional renters, it opens up opportunities for those looking for a more unique living arrangement. Since there is a college located in the city as well as others in surrounding cities, you'll find a good range of places to rent in Nanticoke. View Nanticoke City Guide
Nanticoke 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.
