Youngtown, AZ

120 Apartments for Rent with Pools

Youngtown has the distinction of being the oldest retirement community in the United States. But these days the town is a vibrant area of the Northwest Phoenix Valley of the Sun that is home to 6,156 people of all ages. The area is decidedly small, under two miles of land make up the town, but makes up for its size with a very involved and active community. The town was formed in 1954 when a couple of developers bought up 320 acres of farmland and created the first master-planned adult community in the United States. These men were well ahead of Del Webb and his Sun City community, which is now a neighbor. Things changed for Youngtown in 1996, however, when a resident was denied a request for a 16-year-old to live in Youngtown with them. The Arizona Attorney General got involved and it was determined that this particular bylaw was no good. By 1999, Youngtown was just a regular American town where anyone, and everyone, could live.

Finding apartments with a pool in Youngtown means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Youngtown could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
