Minnehaha, WA 214 Apartments for Rent with Parking

The early residents of the part of Clark County, Washington that came to be known as Minnehaha were introduced to the name by a newspaper editor who likened Burnt Bridge Creek to the waters of Longfellow's imagination. They took to the name, and it has stuck like glue in hair ever since. The census designated place is part of the greater Vancouver, Washington area, which is part of the Portland, Oregon metro. It's home to just about 10,000 people who enjoy the convenient location and available housing choices. Additionally, the shops at Vancouver Mall and Vancouver Plaza are close.

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Minnehaha apartments offer parking options, either outside in a common area or within a private garage.

Ask about the stipulations around the parking. Those may include how many guests are allowed and where tenants park.

Some apartments may only allow parking in front of your own unit. Guest parking may be in a common area for up to one person.

If parking is scarce, look around the area before you sign a lease. Ample street parking in a neighborhood championed for its safety is probably fine. However, it’s probably not worth signing a lease if it means battling for daily parking for you and your guests.

Research whether you need a city permit to park in the neighborhood. Look into the associated costs and what to do about visitors who need parking.

Some tenants prefer garage parking near their units. However, an open-air lot may prove cheaper.

Keep in mind that the cost of wear and tear from parking outside can add up. It may be less expensive, in the long run, to look for an apartment with garage parking.
