Jack Johnson once claimed to have written all of the songs on his "Brushfire Fairytales" album in Isla Vista. If you're looking to get a bit creative, this is clearly the place to be!
Isla Vista is home to a vast array of people from around the state and across the nation. The mild year-round climate makes the seaside relaxation, volleyball games and afternoon cookouts just a few of the many things happening on a daily basis. The Isla Vista apartment complexes are many, so your search for apartments should be short. The area is graced by a mostly Mediterranean climate, and on clear days, the Channel Islands can be spotted off in the distance. Whichever area of Isla Vista you choose to live in, the dense population holds promise that you will soon be making new friends. The community as a whole embraces innovators and progressive thinkers. The very first Kinko's copies (now run by FedEx) was opened in Isla Vista in 1970 by entrepreneur Paul Orfalea. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Isla Vista 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.
