"Do-wop, do-wop." The harmonizing pop vocals of the 1960s pop act, The Vogues, began in Turtle Creek, Pennsylvania.
Located just off Route 30, near the Monongahela River and 12 miles from Pittsburgh, Turtle Creek is a borough located in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. With a population of around 5,300 at the time of the last census in 2010, the town is named for a small stream that flows into the river, where a large number of turtles once basked. Don't hide in your shell -- this is a community with a strong interest in local sports, a pretty creek to walk along, and the nearby Bellwood Park to stroll. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Turtle Creek 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.
