Landing On Free Parking, or at least cheap parking
-
My house sits about midway up a big hill or, depending on how you look at it, midway down a big hill. The neighbors to the right of me are a group of Senators and Representatives that rent the home and live there when they’re in session. So at various times they have to park along the street. To top that off, we’re only allowed to park on one side of the street, so they take up all the room around my house when they’re here.
This usually isn’t a problem for my husband and I; we park in the garage and driveway anyway. But when family visits they sometimes have to park up the hill.
The neighborhood definitely needs more space for parking. This is probably true in most neighborhoods. Families don’t just have one car anymore. Spouses each have a car, roommates each have a car, and eventually the kids are likely to each have a car.
The need for car storage is increasing, even more so in larger cities where living quarters are more compact. It is common to purchase or pay rent for parking outside your apartment or condo. Another solution may be to carpool and put one car into self storage. It may be cheaper and carpooling is a healthy choice for our environment.
