Little Hewitt, Texas, just located outside the notorious Waco, actually has a couple of movie mentions to its credit. Probably the most recognizable is Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay, in which the pair is headed to a wedding in one of the character's hometown, Hewitt.
Hewitt, along with several neighboring communities and some unincorporated areas of McLennan County, is served by the Midway Independent School District. There are six elementary schools, two intermediate schools, one middle school and one high school. The climate of east Texas is much like most of the South. Summers are hot and humid (thanks to the Gulf of Mexico), topping out at a wet and sticky 95 in July. This often feels more like 100 with the heat index. Winters are significantly milder, bottoming out in January around 33 degrees. The area gets about 33 inches of rainfall and averages about one inch of snow per year. The population of Hewitt is 13,368, as of 2010. The area grew slowly and steadily until the 1970s, when it started growing like weeds in the garden. Jobs here are an even mixture of professional positions and unskilled labor, with much of the workforce serving in sales, education and office jobs. Two accredited non-profit hospitals serve the Hewitt community, Hillcrest Health System and Providence Health Care Network. See more
Finding an apartment in Hewitt that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.
While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.
If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
