Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
"This land has a peculiar charm in the rich atmospheric tints that hung and the boundless wastes that lay outspread."
Best-selling author John Ross Browne (1871)
Since Browne made his early travel notes, the Imperial Valley has changed significantly, not least because of the water diverted into it from the Colorado. The internationally renowned engineer George Chaffey formed the Imperial Land Company, which undertook this extensive irrigation project and meant that ultimately the valley could be settled. As well as the cities of Imperial and Calexico, the towns of Brawley and Heber were founded as a result of the early twentieth century development. Today, the recreation facilities close to Imperial transform the desert into a popular tourist destination. The city is well served by the nearby Imperial County Airport, which offers frequent scheduled services to both Burbank and San Diego. Imperial covers an area of just under six square miles and it lies only about a twenty minute drive to the international border. You won't be surprised to learn that, because of its location so far south, the city enjoys a hot and desert-like climate. View Imperial 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 Imperial renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
