"There's a reason [the U.S. Open is] coming back to Oakmont. This really is the gold standard for championship golf. It doesn't get any better than Oakmont." -- Mike Davis, USGA Sr. Director of Rules and Competitions
Oakmont, Pennsylvania, is a suburb of Pittsburgh and boasts a population of nearly 6,500 residents. This borough is nicknamed "one square mile of happiness" by locals, although it really encompasses almost two square miles of true area. That's fine; there's nothing wrong with more happiness! The borough's name was derived from a tree that stood at the bank of the Allegheny River and served as a landmark in Oakmont's early days. View Oakmont City Guide
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Oakmont 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.
