The McKay clapboard farmhouse in Madison, MS was called "The Strawberry Patch". During the late 19th century. Dr. H.E. McKay was the Strawberry King in 1870 because he and his brother grew acres of strawberries and shipped them north by rail. (Historic Sites Survey, 9/3/85)
Madison, Mississippi may not be the "Strawberry Patch of the World" anymore, but it still hosts the annual "Fit for Agriculture Half Marathon & 10K Run/Walk." That's about as close as it gets. The city of 24,149 people is really more of a suburb of the Jackson, metropolitan area. Shhh don't tell the proud city fathers and mothers. Founded in 1856, you can see that this town has not grown much over the last fifteen decades, but the residents seem quite content with this snail's-pace growth rate. The city residents make their own entertainment by taking classes at the Madison Square Center for the Arts or walking around The Simmons Arboretum. One of city's unusual features is that it has architectural controls in place, so ordinary structures like the Municipal Court Building, Walgreen's and the Shell Station are visions of grandeur with Corinthian pilasters, Italianate-curved parapets and copper cupolas. We all make our own little kingdoms, don't we? See more
Finding apartments with a washer and dryer in Madison offers more freedom and flexibility to your weekends. Throwing in the laundry before work or a Saturday afternoon bike ride and finishing it up later is inconvenient, if not impossible, without your own set-up.
There are a few things to keep in mind while looking for apartments with a washer and dryer in Madison. Ask how old the appliances are before you sign. A washer and dryer over 10-years-old may need to be serviced regularly or have an expired warranty. You should also ask the property management who services the washer and dryer. Some leases stipulate that the landlord will pay for repairs to an essential appliance like oven or refrigerator, but require the tenant to service the washer and dryer.
Finding apartments with a washer and dryer in Madison can go quickly, so come prepared with your bank statements, pay stubs, identification, and letters of recommendation to sign your new lease.
