Surf's up! Pleasure Point, California, is one of the world's top surfing destinations. But it's name doesn't come from the pleasure of the rolling waves but, rather, from its Prohibition-era heritage as a home to many speakeasies.
Located at the northern end of Monterey Bay, the community of Pleasure Point is located between Santa Cruz and Capitola on the shores of the Pacific Ocean. It was settled first by the Ohlone tribe who lived and fished here until the arrival of European settlers in the 1700s. Spanish missionaries controlled the land for another decade after Mexico gained its independence from Spain in 1821. Eventually, the Mexican government seized the missionary lands and distributed them according to the land grant program that carved most of the California landscape into a patchwork of sprawling Ranchos in the 1800s. Two ranchos - Rancho Arroyo del Rodeo and Rancho Encinalitos - claimed parts of modern day Pleasure Point, using the land primarily for grazing cattle. By the 20th century, the rancho land was sold off to individual landowners. Today, it is mostly a residential community defined by its surf culture even as older beach cottages are routinely being replaced by larger vacation estates. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Pleasure Point 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.
