Moving to Swansea

As you prepare to take life's next road exit and create a new life in a new place, there are some things you need to take into consideration.

Things You'll Need

Like many things in life, if you see something you like, you better grab it before someone else does. The same rules apply when looking at rental homes. If you see it and you want it, be prepared to make an offer. Have all of your paperwork ready in a folder that contains, at the very least, your completed rental application, credit report, proof of employment and references. You may be required to submit information and references for your pet as well if you have one.

When to Move

Move anytime except the winter. Illinois suffers from some intense winters with snow and ice that render roads impassable on some occasions. Try to move in the spring when everything blooms, or even the summer and enjoy the warmer temperatures and the sunshine.

Housing and Economy

Depending on how big of a space you want, Swansea apartment rental prices vary. The cost of living is fairly reasonable at 7 percent lower than the state of Illinois. The average commute time for workers in Swansea is 26 minutes (7 percent lower than other cities in Illinois). This means that you'll save both time and money to do the things you really enjoy.
