Bothell East is all about tweeting-- and not in the "140 characters or less on the Internet" sort of way. The University of Washington Bothell campus has over 58 acres of prime bird-watching wetlands on reserve.
The Seattle-area suburb of Bothell East has a somewhat misleading name. It is not the east side of the town of Bothell, but the portion of Bothell south of the gentle Sammamish River. It gets its name by being part of the larger Eastside region of towns and suburbs around Lake Washington, with the major city of Seattle to the west. Bothell East is home to over 8,000 people and it has easy access to several urban centers, plus the famous Pacific Northwest greenery of the Burke-Gilman Trail. See more
Parking can be at a premium in some cities where spaces are challenging to find. Some Bothell East 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.
