Pascagoula, MS

23 Apartments for Rent with Parking

Pascagoula's roots as a small fishing town in South Mississippi are still obvious. It hosts an annual Kids Fishing Rodeo, and a former Congressman and native son's nickname was William "Fishbait" Miller. However, the city has continued to develop, with World War II marking its shift into an industry-driven town. Local lore of the Pascagoula tribe, famous natives such as Jimmy Buffet and a supposed 1973 alien abduction underline the color and characters to be found in the small town that answers to the nickname "Mississippi's Flagship City." Even as the shipbuilding industry created growth and marked the town as more than a fishing hole, its proximity to the Gulf of Mexico and nearby beach towns keep its water sports, fishing and arts scene more in line with the peaceful Southern town that the moss-draped oaks and antebellum architecture indicate.

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Pascagoula 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.
