Wauconda is a world record holder! Yes, that's right. In January 2005, more than 3,000 record setters came together to throw balls of snow at each other for ten minutes, making it the biggest snowball fight ever on record! Now that's something to be proud of!
If all of those participants came from the city itself, that would represent a large portion of the population. There are 13,603 people living in Wauconda according to the latest census in 2010, residing in roughly 5,000 homes. The city sits in the larger Chicagoland area, roughly 30 miles from the center of the city itself, and is found in Lake County, Illinois. There are lots of lakes in the region as you'd expect, with Wauconda's own personal lake being Bangs Lake, which dominates the local area and is a huge centerpoint for social and recreational engagements for the locals. Wauconda is known as a thriving business community and has its own unique blend of industry, retail outlets and service providers. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Wauconda 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.
