Types of apartment in Richland, WA

Richland, WA has a mix of apartments and houses for rent, and the look changes by area. Near the Columbia Point and central Richland areas, many apartments sit in low-rise buildings with simple siding, brick accents, and open parking lots. Around the older parts of town near The Parkway and north Richland, you can still find duplexes, small courtyard apartments, and ranch-style houses with wide lots, carports, and mature trees. Interiors in these older rentals often include smaller kitchens, baseboard heat, and more built-in storage than you might expect.
In south Richland, including areas near Queensgate and Badger Mountain, apartments often look newer and more uniform. Many have stucco or fiber-cement exteriors, attached garages on some layouts, and larger balconies or patios. Townhome-style apartments are common there too. In west Richland and near Horn Rapids, houses for rent often have newer suburban layouts and less shade. Tradeoffs can be practical. Older apartments can have more character and central access, while newer apartments can offer larger closets, in-unit laundry, and easier parking.
