Port St. John, FL

135 Apartments for Rent with Parking

Port St. John is a small town on the banks of the Indian River and is about an hour's drive from Orlando, the East Coast home of Universal Studios and Walt Disney World. It is part of the Palm Bay-Melbourne-Titusville Metropolitan Statistical Area. Census statistics put the population at around 12,267, but Port St. John is a small area, less than four square miles total, so people are packed in there pretty well. It's also very close to Cape Canaveral and the Kennedy Space Center and is within 10 or 15 miles of the Space Coast Regional Airport, so keep in mind the airplanes flying overhead at all hours if you're planning on moving here.

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