Lincoln Park, NJ

163 Apartments for Rent with Garages

Lincoln Park may not have any claims to fame, but sometimes the best places to live are the ones that keep a low profile. To validate this theory, New Jersey Monthly magazine recently named Lincoln Park as one of the best places to live in New Jersey, due in part to its friendly small-town ambiance, civic pride and sense of community. It's the kind of place where the local library has a chess club (it really does), and where the local lacrosse team raises money by hosting a community spaghetti dinner. Along with this warm and fuzzy neighborhood vibe, you'll also find a major corporate presence here that includes Outwater Hardware Corporation and KayPentax, a major medical equipment manufacturer. With a population of 10,521 (2010 census), Lincoln Park truly qualifies as a small town, but with Newark and New York City just half an hour and 45 minutes away, respectively (as long as it's not rush hour), you're close to all the joys and none of the headaches of urban America.

Lincoln Park 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.
