Dyer, Indiana: Home to the Jacobethan Revival Architecture of Meyer's Castle
Okay, don't get too excited--moving to Dyer doesn't mean you'll actually be living in a castle. But you can definitely find a great apartment, and get your palatial fix with visits to Meyer's Castle on the weekends (fine, you can still wear a crown. Just don't try to dig a moat in your new yard.) Dyer is a small town of about 16,000 people that offers all the comforts and conveniences of a major metropolitan area, with Chicago just a short drive away. Named one of the fastest growing towns in Indiana, Dyer placed 97th on the "100 Best Places to Live in the US" report by CNN and Money magazine. See more
Dyer 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.
