Very many of Alcoa's streets are named after famous individuals from bygone years. Among them are Bell Street, named for Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, Darwin Street, named for Charles Darwin, author of the acclaimed "Origin of the Species", and Edison Street, named for Thomas Edison, the man credited with the invention of the electric light bulb.
Alcoa, together with its 8,500 inhabitants, is located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, 13 miles south of Knoxville, in Blount County, Tennessee. The main employer in Alcoa is the Alcoa aluminum smelting corporation, which has been in business within the area since 1910. Alcoa's proximity to Knoxville, which is a mere 22-minute drive on a good day, means that many Alcoans choose to commute for work. See more
Finding an apartment in Alcoa that accepts your pet may not be easy, but it’s very possible. Keep in mind, most of the time you’ll have to pay a premium for bringing your dog along in your new apartment. Some apartments require you to pay monthly pet rent, others will ask for a non-refundable pet fee or a refundable pet deposit.
While landlords and property management companies have varying pet policies, most of them limit the number of dogs you can bring to your apartment and include breed and weight restrictions.
If your pet falls under some of the restrictions outlined in the pet policy, it’s still worth asking the landlord if they can make an exception for your dog. Preparing a pet resume ahead of time could help you build the case for your furry friend. Make sure to include information on behavioral training your dog went through over the years and proof of vaccinations. If you can, include references from your former landlord and/or neighbors.
