If you are searching for an apartment in Burlington, your career may help make your next home more affordable.

Apartment Discounts for Alamance County Schools Employees
Teachers and school employees need a home that gives them somewhere comfortable to recharge when the school day is over.
Eligible Alamance County Schools employees can receive a 3% discount on rent at Preston Park.
Whether you are a teacher, administrator or eligible school employee relocating to the Burlington area, renting can provide flexibility while you learn your commute, explore neighborhoods and become more familiar with the community.
Preston Park offers one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, allowing renters to choose a floor plan that fits their household.
If you need additional space for lesson planning or working from home, a second bedroom may provide room for a dedicated office.
And yes, having a door you can close on the stack of papers waiting to be graded absolutely counts as a wellness amenity.

Apartment Discounts for Firefighters, EMS and Police Officers
First responders do not always work predictable schedules.
Early mornings, nights, weekends and long shifts can all be part of the job.
That makes convenience particularly important when choosing where to live.
Eligible firefighters, EMS professionals and police officers can receive a 3% rent discount at Preston Park Apartments.
When searching for an apartment, consider how easily your community fits around your work schedule.
Can you work out when your schedule allows?
Can you get outside and decompress after a shift?
Is home somewhere you genuinely want to return to when the workday is finished?
These questions matter just as much as countertops and closet space.

Amenities That Make Life Outside Work Easier
At Preston Park, community amenities give residents several ways to spend their downtime close to home.
Amenities include:
- 24-hour fitness center
- Yoga and spin room
- Saltwater swimming pool
- Pickleball courts
- Dog park
- Walking paths
- Playground
- Outdoor grills and gathering spaces
- Clubhouse and resident areas
For residents with changing schedules, having a 24-hour fitness center can be especially useful because your workout does not have to happen during traditional business hours.
Outdoor areas can also provide a simple way to unwind, spend time with family or take the dog out after work.
Living and Working in Burlington, NC
One of the advantages of living in Burlington is being able to build your daily routine around the places you actually use.
When selecting an apartment, map:
- Your school, station or workplace
- Grocery stores
- Healthcare providers
- Childcare or schools
- Fitness options
- Restaurants
- Parks and recreation
- Major roads you use regularly
The goal is not simply to choose an apartment that looks good online.
It is to choose a home that makes an ordinary Monday easier.
Preston Park’s Burlington location provides access to everyday destinations throughout Burlington and Alamance County while offering a residential community where residents can settle into life after work.
Why Rent While You Learn the Area?
If you are relocating to Burlington for a position with Alamance County Schools or a local public safety agency, renting can give you time to understand the area before making a larger housing commitment.
Your priorities may change once you know:
- Your real commute
- Your preferred part of Burlington
- Your long-term work plans
- Your household’s space needs
- Where you spend your free time
- Whether homeownership fits your future goals
An apartment can provide a flexible place to start while you figure those things out.
