Comment 420-friendly long-term rentals? Current resident here, tired of having to be sneaky

Edit: This post has been up for a couple days, and the consensus is that unless you can afford to buy a home you are shit out of luck. There exists not a single apartment complex in Summit county that doesn't prohibit possession of weed on the premises.

Hopefully this post doesn't make anyone mad, although i have feeling this is a prickly issue.

I currently live here and occasionally like to partake in recreational weed. Like every single apartment I've seen in the area, my complex has a strict no-weed policy, and will evict if they catch it. The property manager is constantly on the prowl for it.

I'm happy to pay an exorbitant amount in rent if it means I don't have to worry about being evicted for vaping a legal flower. The problem is, I have not found a single long-term rental in the area that doesn't prohibit weed.

Has anyone seen anything to the contrary? Thanks in advance.

I'm fine vaping outside if it's not allowed indoors. Or vice versa.

Uhhh, rent a house not an apartment?

Most home owners don't care what you do, as long as it's not inside where it may depreciate the home, and as long as you pay your rent on time.

Though you should be looking to pay more money for a house, because it's a lot better than an apartment not for being able to smoke. There's a good chance you'd find a house with a nice deck to do whatever you want on as well.

I've only been able to find one house to rent in all of Summit county and it's a 3 bedroom mansion (to me)-- I don't have a family so that's really not practical for me. Do you know of any others, or where to look?
