It’s no secret that Wilkes-Barre, PA had a rough upbringing. Beginning with the Knox Mining Disaster in the 1950s that destroyed the economy, moving through hurricanes and flooding in the 1970s, and ending with social and political issues in the 1990s and 2000s, this Scranton suburb has certainly overcome some challenges. However, the city has pushed a major renovation effort in recent years and Wilkes-Barre is quickly becoming a pleasant, economically viable place to live. If you are looking for an apartment or house to rent here, there are lots of great options which often include amenities like swimming pools, hot tubs, cable, wifi and off-street parking.

Wilkes-Barre 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.
