If your ideal image of a place to live involves lots of trees, a clear blue lake that is large enough for swimming, fishing, boating, or other water activities, then Lakemoor is a great choice. To get a sense for just how cherished peace and quiet is, boat motors are limited to less than 10 HP. However, a small electric motor is enough to get you where you need to go.
The 6,017 residents of Lakemoor have access to plenty of outdoor space, including the small glacial Lily Lake nearby, not to mention four state parks and six counter conservation areas in close proximity. Out of the total 5.25 square miles that make up this town, 5.01 square miles are land and 0.24 square miles are water. If you're looking for a large city or town with sports venues and shopping malls, you won't find it here. However, residents cherish the surrounding water and can often be found on it or very close to it. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Lakemoor 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.
