Brook Highland, AL

119 Apartments for Rent with Parking

Brook Highland is all of a whopping 2.9 square miles on the map, making it about the size of Mayberry of television fame. If that wasn't enough, most of the residents would make Andy, Barney and Aunt Bea proud: they fish, attend town festivals, sit on the porch and gossip about the neighbors, and spend time enjoying the sights and sounds of their sister city, Birmingham. Once called Lake Purdy, Brook Highland has it all. Well, except Lake Purdy. The real Lake Purdy is a manmade reservoir disguised as a lake. See more

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Brook Highland 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.
