Snow in San Anselmo / My waitress my waitress my waitress / Said it was coming down / Said it hadn't happened in over thirty years / But it was laying on the ground / But it was laying on the ground - From "Snow in Anselmo" by Van Morrison
Most small towns want to grow into a city because that brings money into government coffers and increases residential services. Not San Anselmo. The residents and officials of this incorporated town are dead set against such intrusive growth with a mission to "maintain a small town ambiance." Cultural attractions are strictly small-scale: music and theater in the park, a historical museum, and library. But historical downtown shopping, tree-covered hills, and lots of green spaces make this locale one of the most desirable places to live in Marin County. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for San Anselmo renters. They`re typically a beautiful addition to your space. They’re also easier to clean and sweep, particularly if you have pets.
However, there are some downsides. Hardwood floors carry sounds. They can also make your apartment noisy for your roommates and downstairs neighbors.
Ask the landlord or property manager about the hardwood floors before signing a lease. Are they actually hardwood or a popular composite alternative? The latter is probably easier to clean and care for than the real thing.
It’s also important to ask about who’s responsible for any damage to the floors and what that entails. Your security deposit could take a hit from scratches, dents, and other damage.
Consider the type of climate you live in. Hardwood floors typically don’t fare well in damp climates full of moisture. Stains and buckling are common in hardwood floors after rain flooding or excessive moisture.
However, hardwood floors can be ideal for dry climates or sunny areas for renters who love the way they look.
