Los Angeles has been turning their streetlights into EV charging stations. So if you need to charge - just park under a lamp and plug in.
The goal is that everywhere in the city will have charging, so presuming you can park near a streetlight you'll be able to charge your car. After all - the streetlight needs power anyway.
That said - I bought my Model 3 when I was still living in an apartment. Charging wasn't too bad. My job gave me free charging in the parking garage as a perk, and on top of that I had a Supercharger I could stop at on the way home if I needed it (which I rarely did). Usually I only used that charger if I was eating in that shopping center anyway, and typically my charging would get done before I finished waiting for my food (so I'd have to rush to move my car before getting idle fees).
The challenging part came when the pandemic started. I didn't commute to work anymore, but my car would slowly die in the parking spot (just like how your phone can die in your pocket).
Every weekend, I had to take it down to charge it. This honestly wasn't so bad. There was a charger by an In-N-Out, so I'd stop by and grab something to eat while I charged. There was a mall across the street with free charging as well, but during the early days of the pandemic they originally blocked a lot of the mall off.
After a couple of months I moved to a place with a garage, and now I charge using a regular wall outlet without any problem. But it really wasn't too bad having to charge while in an apartment, to be honest.
