Oakley, CA

26 Apartments for Rent with Parking

Oakley is a quiet, rather new city located in the eastern portion of the San Francisco Bay Area. Currently, about 35,000 people call Oakley their home. Although the city was only incorporated in 1999, there's no shortage of places to live, learn, and play in this former farming town. Since Oakley is farther inland than San Francisco, the summers can be a little bit warmer than on the bay. But don't worry; temperatures rarely get above 96 degrees, and the winter temperatures don't often drop below 40 degrees. So if you're looking for extreme weather, you won't find it here, unless you're afraid of occasional rain and fog. Oh, and as you search for apartments in Oakley, don't confuse this city with Oakland, a much larger area closer to the bay. See more

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