So, What is your opinion? We are trying to decide on Apartments in Clarks Summit. It is very hard to decide on a place when we can't really see any of them. Richard has sister that has been such a big help to us with looking at places and sending us pictures of them and telling us about them. So we are down to two choices now. One on clearview street - Has 2 bedrooms and decent bathroom and a nice kitchen with lots of cupboard space and counter space. The living room and bedrooms are hardwood floors. There is some sort of back yard that we might share with the downstairs neighbors. There is pretty good closet space and supposedly some more storage somewhere else.
Then there is the Peckville one - again 2 bedrooms but the bathroom is really small and not too appealing. The neighborhood is very nice with a nice porch that we could use and a 2 car garage. There isn't too much closet space but there is a big attic that is perfect for storage. The kitchen is not as nice and there are no appliances (the Gardners said they have a stove and fridge we could take with us and we have the room, so its not too much of a problem) but the counter and cupboard space is limited.
Both are the same price $500 + utilities (gas heat) and both are the upstairs apartment of a house or something so there are people underneath us.
So now we have to decide which one we want more. We will probably be happy with either once we just make the decision. But let me know what your opinion is. What would you prefer in an apartment?

I am trying to determine which one I would choose...I would say the clearview street one with lots of cupboard space and counter space...the apartment we live in has a lots of cupboard and counter space and it was so easy to move into the kitchen without being frustrated with where everything is going and having to buy extra storage units...I guess that would be my decision just based on the kitchen. Also, it is very nice to have a big closet as well as another storage place very available to you without having to climb up in an attic. So I guess that would be my pick. It kind of sounds like our apartment except for the hard ware floors and I love our apartment!!! Some one else may definitely have another opinion though. Let me know what you and Richard decide!!
I'm a big big fan of patio space. Tim & I love going out and reading on our patio or having dinner out there. So, if that's private (not shared below) that would be a selling point for me. A garage would be REALLY nice for storage esp. once you have all that Christmast stuff and I'm sure all your camping stuff.
Bathroom isn't really that big of a deal b/c I don't spend that much time there. The kitchen. . . well, I don't know how small small is. So if you like to cook and be in the kitchen then I guess that is important.
Let us know which you pick and put up pix :)
