Parking can be an issue anywhere you go, but there are many ways Camden can help, and how you can help to be a good neighbor! How, may you ask? Let me dive in and get straight to the point.

Understand the Parking Options at your Community

While some Camden communities include a designated parking space as part of your lease, it's more common for reserved or dedicated spaces to be an easy add-on.

Reserved Parking spaces are for residents who would like a space close to or near their apartment. They are also designated for those wishing to add this space to their monthly rent. Being a good neighbor can be as simple as checking where you are parking during the day or night and making sure it is not a reserved space that is not yours.

Carports are another form of reserved parking that some communities offer. They are covered parking spots. The weather can be unpredictable, so why not shield your vehicle from the elements?

Garages are also helpful for protecting your car from any weather situation. They also give you room for extra storage, such as holiday decorations, bicycles, and more!

Community parking is sometimes shared between guest parking and residential parking. Depending on the community, reserved parking, carports, or garages may be available for rent.

How Can I Be a Good Neighbor When it Comes to Parking?

Well, the answer to this question is quite simple. You can be a good neighbor by double-checking where you park. I understand that we all have busy lives, and sometimes we are in a hurry for work, meetings, appointments, etc., but do your best to ensure you are not parking in anyone’s assigned parking area, carport, or even garage.

• Parking within the lines so you and your neighbors have space to open their doors

• Never double-park or take up more than one space

• Not parking in a fire lane, curb, or in the grass

We all want to be good neighbors in the hope that we will receive the same in return. At Camden, we are not just residents and team members, we are family. To find out if your community offers these rentable spaces, please contact your leasing office for more information!
