Milton, FL

95 Apartments for Rent with Garages

Resting at the base of Blackwater Bay, just a short jaunt from the Gulf of Mexico, Milton was originally nicknamed "Scottman's Anchorage" for all the barges that rolled down the river. Its later nickname was "Scratch Ankle," for the itchiness one would get from walking through all the briers and brambles that grew here. Images of timber, ships and railroads detail the storied history of the town. While the residents who live here have one foot in the past, they also have one foot stepping forward, ready to carve out their dreams in the Florida panhandle. See more

Milton apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.

Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.

It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.

Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
