The Urban Planned Worker Community in East Chicago--known as Marktown--was built in 1917 and is considered one of the 7 wonders of Northwest Indiana. In Marktown, you walk in the street and park on the sidewalk!
In addition to parking on the sidewalk in Marktown, East Chicago is a pretty cool place. You will find everything you need here, and if by chance you don't, Chicago is close at hand. You really won't need the big city, though, because East Chicago has it all -- thanks to it's proximity to Lake Michigan. This waterway has been an important part of the city since it was founded and has led to incredible economic opportunities for the nearly 30,000 residents of this city. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some East Chicago 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.
