Conley is a CDP in Clayton and DeKalb counties, Georgia, with a population of around 6,200 people. Living in Conley will put you within a mere 11 miles from the unofficial capital city of the South, Atlanta, making for an easy commute to a vibrant city. Just don't act too surprised if you see a couple of undead shuffling past on your way to work, as Atlanta is also a zombie paradise, with the "Walking Dead" and zombie movies such as "Zombieland" filmed here all the time. The Atlanta Horrorfest and plenty of zombie runs, zombie conventions and other zombie gatherings are held here frequently, drawing even more hordes to the area. But don't worry -- Conley is everything but a post-apocalyptic wasteland and a pretty charming place to live, welcoming newcomers with typical Southern hospitality. Just don't let any of the locals catch you with a Pepsi in your hand as, with the Coca Cola headquarters stationed here, you will be living on the Coke-side of life. See more

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