City Guide for Winfield, IL

Although the town wasn't incorporated until 1921, its history dates back to the 1830s, when it was dubbed Gary's Mill after an early pioneer. (The name still exists in a two mile stretch of road.) In 1873, the town assumed its current designation from Winfield Scott, a U.S. Army general and Whig Party candidate for president in 1852.

It's only a slight exaggeration to say that finding parking in Chicago takes longer than taking the train from Winfield. That's why many commuters make their home in this incorporated village. If you want to join their ranks, expect a respite from crowds, noise and graffiti. You won't even have to leave the hamlet for after-work amusement if you like the natural fun of forest preserves and waterways. View Winfield City Guide

What to keep in mind when looking for apartments with balconies in Winfield, IL

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.

Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.

You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.

Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.

Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.

Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Winfield renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
