Apartment smoking bans. Good idea?

Last Updated: May 21, 2008By

Recently we had an article about smoking in apartments, and now I found a survey on Lansner on Real Estate from the OCRegister that shows what the actually tenants think about putting a ban on smoking in an apartment complex. Write in to us and tell us what you think.

Apartments.com’s latest tenant survey says renters — even those who don’t smoke — aren’t that crazy about smoking bans.

Of those surveyed, 44.7% opposed the idea of making smoking in apartments illegal while 39.1% supported a ban. Nearly two-thirds of those surveyed — 61.9% — were non-smokers.

About a third of the respondents — 31.8% — said a property management company shouldn’t decide that you can’t smoke in the privacy of your own apartment. Another 22.2% didn’t mind people smoking in their own place as long as it didn’t affect them.
