247 Apartments for Rent with Garages

The incorporated village of Floral Park, NY acquired its handle with the arrival of John Childs in 1874. As a purveyor of seeds, he managed to create America's first catalog for those magical kernels that end up sprouting many of Mother Nature's remarkable plants and flowers. He eventually became mayor after exerting enormous influence with his benevolence to the community from the profits he generated from his highly successful seed and bulb business. Not surprisingly, many of the streets were named after flowers his company grew in the area. Today, it's a thriving community that was once a part of the New York City (NYC) borough of Queens. According to the U.S. Census Bureau's 2010 report, Floral Park, NY packed 15,863 residents into a miniscule 1.4 square miles of Nassau County real estate, in itself a true testament to its appeal and popularity as the closest Long Island suburb to the big city of New York.

Floral Park apartments with garages are sometimes more expensive than other options. However, they may make more financial sense in the long run.

Weather, break-ins, and daily struggles to find a space can take a toll financially and physically. Remember that even cities in mild climates experience issues like salt air, tornadoes, hail, falling branches from storms, and other issues.

It’s also possible to score an auto insurance reduction if you park in a garage. Ask your insurance provider about any deals or discounts that could trim money off the cost of your monthly bill.

Before signing a lease, ask the landlord or property manager about any restrictions on garage use. It’s important to know if there are enough spaces for tenants and visitors and what happens if the garage is full. If you’re moving into an apartment inside a home, ask about any conditions on its use and if storage is allowed.
