Another thought to consider is whether or not the apartment owners have been aproached by Verizon. There's a good chance that if a quarter mile down the road, and your immediate area are serviced by the same central office, you'll eventually get FiOS.
Check with your Landlord to see if they have been approached by Verizon for a FiOS installation. If not, give them the heads up that it's something they should get in, so when the time comes they don't make a decision you're not happy with.
As for deployment information, Verizon tends to remain hush about this.
