Huntley: Country Charm in a Planned Environment
Huntley is one of Chicago's historical suburbs. Located about 50 miles northwest of the city, Huntley is close enough to benefit from being a suburb of Chicago without dealing with much of the traffic and congestion that some of the closer suburbs have to encounter. The city of Huntley has historically pursued a policy of aggressive planning and expanding the city's residential and commercial zones. The result is a city that is easy to navigate, and one that has balanced historical neighborhoods with new developments. See more
Apartment complexes with a gym offer a valuable amenity to Huntley renters looking to get fit and slash their gym membership. However, not all gyms are the same.
Make a list of your must-haves in a gym setting. Ask about the variety and age of any cardio machines. Also ask about any weight training equipment and free weights.
Consider the spaciousness of the workout area. Some apartment gyms are small. Those can create tension with tenants looking to squeeze in a workout before or after work.
If you enjoy circuit training, make sure there’s enough space to spread out and get in the workout you want.
Cleanliness is also crucial to an apartment gym experience. During your apartment tour, carefully inspect the fitness area to check for cleanliness and any extra perks. Also consider the potential savings if you can cancel a gym membership!
Towels, an attendant, flat-screen TVs, and a locked door for exclusive tenants access can all add value to your apartment gym experience.
