This is really not an entirely different issue than being a pet owner and trying to rent.
I've had dogs since I was a little girl, and spent many decades finding people to rent to me (esp. since I always have BIG dogs 70+ lbs).
It depends on your attachment to a certain lifestyle. I'd rather live in a teepee on raw land WITH my dogs than not have them ----- they are an integral part of my *lifestyle* that I can't even imagine not having......because dogs in my life are part of my inner happiness.
There are a lot of variables here, one is how difficult it is to find affordable alternative rentals. If you lived in NYC the answer would be "impossible". In other places, if I felt that my inner happiness required vaping on my lanai, and there were other rentals, I would probably vacate the apartment complex. I can't decide for you because vaping for me is not an intregal part of my inner happiness.....in the sense that it is a habit that I CAN quit if I had to, or pursue other forms of harm reduction to get my nicotine.....and I would still probably be happy.
Different answers for everyone except that we are on a vaping forum so I would assume that your happiness involves vaping and you do not want to live where you can't do that openly and to your ultimate satisfaction......
I've certainly met my share of people who really seem to hate dogs (even well behaved trained ones like I have) and I imagine there are the same share of people who hate vaping?
