79 Apartments for Rent with Parking

What’s so great about Lathrop, huh? Well, first of all, it’s close to everything — just five miles from Manteca, 11 miles from Stockton, 58 miles from Sacramento, and 75 miles from the Bay Area. Also, because Lathrop is at the intersection of State Route 120 and I-5, it’s an easy commute in pretty much every direction.

Secondly, Lathrop is a small community with tons of great amenities. Besides proximity to bigger cities for those with a livelier taste, the town also has easy access to plenty of local shopping, dining, and entertainment. However, due to its size, Lathrop still has more community charm and laid-back vibes than, say, Sacramento or Stockton. The city also operates several great parks with recreational opportunities, walking trails, playgrounds, and even camping.

Lathrop is growing very quickly, with lots of new developments diversifying the rental market. And, since the overall city is quite safe, you shouldn’t have too much trouble locating rental properties that suit your needs — even if that’s a studio apartment — somewhere in one of Lathrop’s pleasant neighborhoods.

Okay, so the first thing you’re going to find when you start your apartment hunt is a lot of large rental homes located in the far southwestern portion of town, in the development known as Mossdale Village. If you’re looking for tons of space, garages, fenced-in yards, and suburban living, this area is perfect for you. These sprawling homes generally range from $1,500 to $1,800, and frequently come with their own swimming pool.

The rest of Lathrop is scattered with smaller, more modest (and affordable!) houses for rent. Northwest of the city center you’ll frequently find smaller ranch-style homes that rent for $1,150 to $1,350.

While there aren’t many apartment complexes in Lathrop proper, as you head southeast towards Manteca, you’ll find a handful of newer developments. These apartment rental communities frequently have a swimming pool and gym. Two bedrooms in this portion of town generally range from $950 to $1,150.

Good news for Lathrop pet lovers! Many area rental homes and apartments are pet friendly. Certain landlords may charge exorbitant pet deposits upon lease signing, but overall the Lathrop rental market has plenty of places with both cats allowed and dogs allowed!

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