Hueytown, AL 139 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Both agriculture and industry formed the backbone of Hueytown, AL: a nice, quaint country town. The Woodward Iron Co. was formed here in 1881 and had a daily capacity of 250,000 tons of iron in 1909. But steel mills are part of the town's history, not its present. The last blast furnace closed in 1973. There was coal mining, too, at the turn of the century, which is another industry that is no longer part of the community. Left behind were several historic buildings from the mining era that are fascinating to explore, if you like that sort of thing. View Hueytown 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 Hueytown renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
