It was either Pittsburgh or Paris, but somewhere between the two concepts, Beaver Falls fell into place. The city was chosen for the portrayal of the '80s sitcom, Mr. Belvedere. At the time, producers figured it fitted their model of a suburban community "moving into the up and coming, yet with the traditional spirit of the country [USA]." It pretty much sums up the current Beaver Falls.
The name Beaver Falls sounds more like a get-away resort town than a city. So it comes as no surprise that in the late 1800s, Beaver Falls's true claim to fame was the awesome falls that quickly became a scenic stopover for travelers in western Pennsylvania. Today, the city has grown into a suburban residential neighborhood with 8,967 residents in its plateau. Beaver Falls encompasses a total land mass of 2.1 square miles; if you consider big cities cold and unfriendly, this neighborhood will test how much closeness you can stand. As you can imagine, with its size, everyone in the community looks familiar and receives a warm greeting, giving a whole new meaning to the phrase "small talk." View Beaver Falls City Guide
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 Beaver Falls renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
