There's a reason why its name means "beautiful view" in French. The charming borough of Bellevue might have escaped your notice before, but we're giving you a glimpse of a place with a rich history and scenery fitting of its name.
With its small population, Bellevue is a relatively intimate community, but not so small that people can spit across it. What it lacks in size, it makes up for in the peaceful surroundings that you'd be hard pressed to find in large cities like New York. It's even better if you're not into alcohol, since the borough has gained an odd reputation for being a "dry town," which basically means it legally prohibits alcohol. If you are sick of busy streets, drunken shouting crowds and never-ending work, then Bellevue is just the right place for you to relax and enjoy life. View Bellevue 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 Bellevue renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
