Franklin Park, NJ

123 Apartments for Rent with Pools

Originally called Six Mile Run, Franklin Park comprises a small area of Franklin Township in New Jersey, roughly two and a half square miles, and is in what is known as the Skylands Region of the state, at least as far as county lines and New Jersey tourism is concerned (yes, people actually want to go there. On purpose.). According to the 2010 census, there are over 13,000 people living there so it's fairly packed in. New Jersey, and specifically Franklin Township's relative proximity to New York City, one of the biggest and greatest cities in the world puts it at an almost instantaneous younger sibling-like disadvantage, but while shows like The Jersey Shore show some of the worst Jersey has to offer, and there is a faint, unpleasant odor from the state when you drive through it, there are beautiful areas that don't gain the same amount of positive attention and perhaps the denizens of New Jersey like it that way.

Finding apartments with a pool in Franklin Park 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 Franklin Park 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.
