Davis Townhouse Apartments

Davis Townhouse Apartments is the oldest existing apartment complex in town. According to the book, "Davis, California 1910s-1940s,"

One of the structures that looks the same today as it did in 1952 is the Davis Townhouse Apartments. This apartment building covers most of the block bounded by University Avenue, Russell Boulevard, B and Fourth streets. It replaced a turkey farm on this site. This complex was among the first of what would be a wave of apartment buildings in Davis.

As of February 2009, rent is $850 for a 1 bedroom, $1140 for 2 bedrooms. They do not show the insides of apartments, as they all apparently have different floor plans. The 1 bedroom apartment is about 600 square feet. This is a non-smoking complex. They do make waiting lists, but since they offer month to month rent, you won't know if you get an apartment until the month before you want it.

**As of September 2011, rent for a 1 bedroom is $865 a month.

Unlike many other Davis apartment complexes there is a sense of community here. I'm so glad we made this choice. ...but yes, it's HOT HOT HOT. The A/C is very old —AnnBradshaw

2008-04-15 15:27:31   does anyone know the best way to live here? do you need to be on the waiting list very long? —margarethowe

2010-05-03 18:19:40   We wanted an apartment in August/September and were on the waiting list for 7 months prior to finally getting a place in mid September. The wait and the uncertainty were well worth it, however. These are great apartments with hardwood floors, lots of period charm, spacious decks, and great neighbors! Not to mention the location right across from Central Park and blocks from downtown and UCD campus. If you want to live in the best apartments in town get on the wait list early! Though if you have flexibility about when you can move some apartments come up in winter when others are stuck in their leases and can't move - you could get lucky. —aubitz
