My suggestion is to simply keep looking. Question 1) Do you allow pets? Are small cage animals ok? Then, when they ask what, you say a 'a small, harmless pet snake', rather than 'ball python', as most people do not know the difference between a ball python and the star of the movie 'Anaconda'. If you have a locking cage (which I'd really recommend anyhow), this is a big selling point.
You may also want to consider looking into mobile homes, which are likely to be more lenient, offer more privacy, and are often in the same price range. (In spite of the stigma, where you are has a lot to do with what sort of folks live in trailor parks, lol. Some of them are much nicer than apartments).
