Clemson, SC

32 Apartments for Rent with Garages

There are two prevailing schools of thought about Clemson: it's a very small town that offers those who live there little to do or it's a great home base for outdoor recreational opportunities that abound in the region. Indeed, Clemson is small. By the 2010 Census, the town's population was just less than 14,000. But that doesn't mean this town doesn't have a lot to offer, because it does -- really. It has gorgeous scenery, it's peaceful and it is close to areas that have a lot of activities. Clemson is bounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains on the north and Lake Hartwell on the west. To the east are Greenville and Anderson, larger towns which offer more varied shopping and dining opportunities. Two hours via Interstate 85 is metropolitan Atlanta with all the big-city delights you could want. In the foothills, you'll find plenty of places to explore waterfalls, hike, backpack or camp. A bit further north, there's snow skiing and tubing at various ski resorts. See more

Clemson 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.
