The small city of De Soto, Kansas, is named after Spaniard Hernando De Soto, a 16th-century explorer. He was the first person to cross the Mississippi River, and the city retains something of his sense of adventure to this day.
De Soto covers 11 square miles along the Kansas River, spanning Johnson and Leavenworth counties. It has a population of 5,720 and is just half an hour by car from Kansas City, so if you need some respite from relaxing small-town life (silly you!) you can be in a bigger city right quick. De Soto is regarded as part of the Kansas City Metropolitan Area, a region that encompasses 15 counties. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some De Soto 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.
