Depends on where you rent, apartment buildings downtown yeah. But if you find a multi family or other rental situation further out most have parking available.

Depends.. most residential neighborhoods no you can park on the street if you're lucky you have an apartment with a driveway available or you're in a complex that has parking but finding that parking can suck it's a battle for street parking a lot of neighborhoods are packed in tight.. downtown the canal District there's metered parking and then there are parking garages that would cost money.

The metered spots downtown are $1.50 minimum for an hour I think. You used to be able to just put a quarter in for 15 minutes or so but they changed it when it went digital. The municipal garages allow free parking during snowstorms for a certain time period to help clear the roads.
