Jefferson, LA

77 Apartments for Rent with Pools

On the east bank of the Mississippi River, the tiny hamlet of Jefferson sits close enough to New Orleans that residents can enjoy all the pleasures and conveniences of the Big Easy, but still be removed enough to get the "small town feel" here. Technically a CDP -- census-designated place -- and not a town, city, or village, Jefferson is in Jefferson Parish and considered part of the New Orleans metro area, which also includes Jefferson's neighbors to the north, Metairie and Kenner.

Finding apartments with a pool in Jefferson means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.

Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.

Finding apartments with a pool in Jefferson could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.

Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
