Plymouth, WI

28 Apartments for Rent

When you think of Plymouth, the nickname "Hub City" immediately pops into your mind. However, the nickname is not a reference to its position within the county or a meeting place for an array of UFOs.

With an average of 187 sunny days per year and only minutes away from Lake Michigan and other lakes, Plymouth is truly the "Hub," where business and pleasure are mixed in a perfect blend. Maybe the small amount of land, only 5.34 square miles, will make you wonder if there's any property rentals left for you. Well, if the 8,445 inhabitants found a place, either bought or rented, chances are you will find something, too.

Moving to Plymouth

When To Look

If you are looking for a studio apartment for rent in Plymouth, the best months to find what you seek are from April to September, when the average temperatures range from 45 å¡F to 62 å¡F. Take your time, scout the city, ask around and choose where you want to live.

How Much Will It Cost?

Peel your eyes: even though there's a fairly average median monthly rent, homeowners tend to charge extra for various reasons just to cover their high monthly costs.

Commuting

There is only one airport and two Amtrak train stations that serve the city and the average commute time is 19 minutes. The interesting thing is that Plymouth doesn't have a public transportation system. And why would they need it? The number of people who work from home is significantly greater than the national average. Therefore, those that do have a job either walk to work or use the carpool.

Apartment Complications

The downside when renting an apartment is that the homeowner will have a set of regulations that he will rub in your face every time he has the opportunity. Also, don't forget about the "friendly" kith that will always find something to complain about. For example, pet-friendly apartments don't necessarily come with pet friendly neighbors.

What You'll Need

Bring your proof of income, references, credit report and rental history if you have one. Of course, a tenant with a check prepared will have more chances of renting a place to live.

City Complications

Before moving here, make sure you have properly read the Holy Bible of Rules and Regulations that the city has. Remember to own a certificate of vaccination for your four-legged friend and make sure he has the proper manners, unless you want a fine, of course. Also, be careful where you park your car and don't forget to buy a shovel for the upcoming winters when you will need to clear your sidewalk.

Neighborhoods

Because of the size of this town, you won't find any distinct neighborhoods here, even though some things may feel spread out. To get around the city, you will need a car or maybe a bike. Plymouth is a rather pedestrian-friendly city with no public transport whatsoever. All the amenities can be found within a mile, so you will enjoy your walk to the grocery store.

Living in the Town

Struggling to pay the month-to-month rent may be exhausting. Not in Plymouth though. Sure, work can be sometimes overwhelming and demanding, but weekends can be very fun. The city offers a wide variety of fun things to do. You can go fishing or swimming at the nearby lakes, including Lake Michigan. Or maybe you will be in the mood for a history lesson at one of the museums in the city.

Plymouth is also home to many parks, zoos, horse farms and equestrian stables. You can also practice your skating on the ice rink or show off your golf skills on one of the golf courses. When night falls, head to a nice restaurant and enjoy your meal -- and don't forget to order a tasty glass of wine!
