Fox Point, WI

107 Apartments for Rent with Parking

Fox Point is a village in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin with a population of 6,701. It's located along the North Shore, just outside of Milwaukee and is named after a tiny point of land that juts out into Lake Michigan. It's mostly residential but is home to some quaint shops and restaurants, mostly tucked away in the far northwest side of town. It only covers about 2.90 square miles of land, so even though the population is so slight, you'll still be in close proximity to your neighbors! It's also home to the Albert and Edith Adelman House, which was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places! The Mary Nohl Art Environment is on the National Register of Historic Places, too. It contains many pieces of historic folk art. See more

Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Fox Point apartments offer parking options, either outside in a common area or within a private garage.

Ask about the stipulations around the parking. Those may include how many guests are allowed and where tenants park.

Some apartments may only allow parking in front of your own unit. Guest parking may be in a common area for up to one person.

If parking is scarce, look around the area before you sign a lease. Ample street parking in a neighborhood championed for its safety is probably fine. However, it’s probably not worth signing a lease if it means battling for daily parking for you and your guests.

Research whether you need a city permit to park in the neighborhood. Look into the associated costs and what to do about visitors who need parking.

Some tenants prefer garage parking near their units. However, an open-air lot may prove cheaper.

Keep in mind that the cost of wear and tear from parking outside can add up. It may be less expensive, in the long run, to look for an apartment with garage parking.
