"There's a girl in the heart of Maryland / With the heart that belongs to me. / When I told her of my love / The oriole above sang from the old apple tree. / And Maryland was merry and she promised. / My bride to be." "There's a Girl in Maryland" by Steven Goodman
Hillandale, Maryland, a small suburb of Silver Spring, is about as suburban as it gets. Just a quick ride from Washington D.C. (and the larger Silver Spring), Hillandale itself is a nice little commuter town. There are parks, restaurants, and some shops, but anyone thinking of moving here should be looking for a calm life that's about getting away, (while you're not at work) and play. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Hillandale 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.
