Humming / All the way to Reno / You've written your own directions / __And whistled the rules of change -- From "All the Way to Reno (You're Gonna Be a Star)" by R.E.M.

It's a quiet and convenient little town, and the folks here prefer it to the bustle of Reno. It's also an easy drive to the nearby airport, and you can coast right into California on I-395 anytime you like! See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Sun Valley 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.
