To own an EV, you basically have to be able to AC charge at home or at work. The good news is that all of the new 5-over-1 apartment buildings (at left around here) are being built with a handful of chargers right from the beginning. As they become more popular, it's pretty easy to add more.
But you can also get creative. My local chain grocery store has level 2 chargers in the parking lot. These don't make much sense to use while shopping, but they're convenient enough for all of the older apartments nearby. Most universities have AC chargers, but it's probably not convenient and you'd have to move your car the next day.
