They say the grass is greener where you water it.  But isn't it even greener where somebody else waters it?  Somebody, like, a professional?

Well, that's one of the many perks of apartment living!  No yard work, convenience, flexibly, price, luxury,  amenities, awesomeness. Apartments are a #perfectfit.

When I think back to some of my fondest memories, they involve apartment living.

I loved the convenience of living close to school or work - or even better - to shopping malls.  I also enjoyed being able to get exactly what I needed when I needed it, because the next year, if my needs changed, then my residence could change, too. Homeowners, try doing that in today's home market.

And there was always fun activities going on at the apartment complex like karaoke contests, 4th of July cookouts, bunco night, or listening to good music by the pool.  Whatever it was, you were guaranteed to meet nice people, who were also your neighbors.

If you want to experience all the wonderful parts about apartment living, then apartments.com is the place for you!

Just for fun, I decided to search for an apartment on apartments.com. I really like the Dunwoody area of Atlanta, so I started there.  Not just because it's where all my favorite shopping and restaurants are, but well, yeah, that's why.

I typed in the zip code and quickly browsed through the search results. I knew that I would need 3 bedrooms and as much square feet of space as possible, so I focused on that criteria to narrow down my favorites.

And there it was - Mount Vernon Flats at The Perimeter. I read all about the community, looked at photos of the beautiful apartments and the amenities, selected my favorite from the seven floorplans, and even took a virtual tour.  The map feature made it easy to calculate exactly how far away I was from Perimeter Mall (ahem - 2.4 miles).
