Moraine, Ohio was originally part of the Village of Kettering. Kettering was named after Charles F. Kettering, who invented the electrical starting motor and leaded gasoline. Moraine, however, seceded (sounds kind of exciting, right?) from Kettering in 1953, but Mr. Kettering still left a lasting impression on the city. Since Moraine is known for being a manufacturing town, his inventions were especially important for General Motors, which owned and operated a plant there.
While technically it's its own city, with a population of a little over 6,000, Moraine is typically considered a suburb of Dayton. Nestled between Dayton and Cincinnati, and less than two hours to Indianapolis, there are plenty of places to go if you're itching for the big city. See more
Scoring an apartment with hardwood floors can be a big win for Moraine 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.
