Kingston, New York is where the Catskills meet the Hudson. This city earned fame among the patriots for "being the breadbasket of the revolution" and also the ire of the British, who punished it by burning it down in 1777.
Kingston, the first capital of the state of New York, is today a prosperous city of approximately 24,000 residents. It has not one but three historic districts -- Stockade uptown, Broadway midtown and Rondout downtown -- that remind locals and visitors alike of the city's glorious heritage. Urban amenities are either at walking distance or a short drive away. If you're looking for a small town in New York State with pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods, and all the facilities for comfortable living and good education, then Kingston it is.

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 Kingston renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
