Cattle ranch turned suburbs - Willowbrook is your "rural" oasis in the metropolis of Los Angeles.
Willowbrook, California began to develop its first "burbs" in 1894, and the mix of suburban and rural continued until the early 1980s, when a redevelopment plan changed the landscape. Willowbrook is an unincorporated community in Los Angeles County with a population of slightly more than 35,000. A suburb of Los Angeles, it's about 13 miles south of the center of the city. It's so close that residents might as well be in LA. The area has typical California weather--hot summers and warm winters, and rainfall is low year-round. Be prepared for a lighter wallet; the cost of living is 30 percent higher than the United States average. Carpe diem and jaunt over to Willowbrook where you may just find your new home. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Willowbrook 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.
