Since Clarendon Hills' founding father, Henry Middaugh, grew weary of city life and settled 18 miles west of the city in 1854, it's gone by the nickname, "Daisy Fields." Due to a clerical error, Middaugh received a huge shipment of daisy seed instead of grass seed intended for livestock. Although the new property owner was aggravated by the mistake, area residents flocked to the beautiful flowering village for weekend visits, picnics and afternoon strolls.
Although there are a few less daisies growing around Clarendon Hills today, this western Chicago suburb with approximately 8,427 residents (2010 U.S. Census data) still celebrates an annual Daisy Days Festival with sidewalk sales, fair games, ice cream booths and live music. Thanks to a Metra Railway Line that provides daily rail service between Aurora and Chicago, this is a popular suburban home for downtown commuters. One of the notable features that sets Clarendon Hills apart from other suburbs in the area is its landscape architecture. The streets of Clarendon Hills are organic and shaped by the terrain's contours, following in the inspirational footsteps of Frederick Law Olmstead. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Clarendon Hills 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.
