If you’re thinking of moving into an apartment complex, you may take several things into account. Many renters like the idea of having a pool in their apartment complex for a number of reasons, some of which include:

  • easy access and convenience without having to leave your community to go to a facility.
  • meet your neighbors and form social relationships with them, which can be difficult to do when you’re otherwise busy at work.
  • Can help you stay active and fit without having to leave your complex.
  • It will feel like you’re in a resort all around the year.

PRO TIP: Ask if the pool is included in your monthly rent fee or if it costs extra.

With so many advantages, it may make sense to find an apartment with a pool. Depending on which city you live in, it may be harder or easier than others. Follow this guide to help you find what you are looking for.
