"I wish this was a riverbank, instead of a graveyard. I wish we were sittin' and fishin' and this wouldn't be so hard. It was my favorite thing that we used to do, but now we can't. I wish you were here and I wish this were a riverbank." -- From "Riverbank" by Jeff Bates
Incorporated in August of 1922, Riverbank is now home to quite a significant number of people in the Stanislaus County, California. Originally, the town was nothing more than a ferry station for travelers crossing the Stanislaus River, but the population of settlers in the area grew once the Santa Fe Railroad came to town. Now, residents of Riverbank snub their nose at such humble beginnings with an annual Wine and Cheese Festival. Classy! View Riverbank 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 Riverbank renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
