Nope, not that Alamo: Named for the Alamo Land and Sugar Company, the 18,000 plus residents of the town of Alamo, Texas sometimes get tired of explaining their namesake was not for the famous historic Alamo Mission located in San Antonio.
Located 240 miles south of the more famous Alamo, this town is sometimes called the "land of two summers" for its warm and pleasant weather. The community is surrounded by many vegetable farms and citrus groves of all types. It's considered a winter resort and a mecca for retirees. Perched as a gateway to Mexico -- and all those inexpensive leather handbags and blankets -- it's located next to the major transportation corridor, Rte 281. This charming and busy town sits right in the heart of the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas' Hidalgo County. See more
Finding apartments with a pool in Alamo means cooling off from the summer heat, get-togethers, and more exercise. However, there are a few things to consider before signing your next lease.
Ask the property management how long the pool is open each year. Is it seasonal? Does the pool have a heat pump to make it practical to swim beyond summertime? You should also inquire about pool rules, capacity, and if unattended children are permitted. The size of the pool also matters. An oversized apartment complex with a tiny pool could mean crowded summers and frustrations when trying to take a quick dip.
Finding apartments with a pool in Alamo could also drive up your rent, but may be worth the trade-off. Assess the overall amenities of the property. Apartments with a pool may look fantastic on the outside, but inside the kitchen could need an upgrade or the bedrooms could prove smaller than you want.
Once you find the apartment of your dreams, enjoy an afternoon swim and get to know your new neighbors.
