Snow in San Anselmo / My waitress my waitress my waitress / Said it was coming down / Said it hadn't happened in over thirty years / But it was laying on the ground / But it was laying on the ground - From "Snow in Anselmo" by Van Morrison
Most small towns want to grow into a city because that brings money into government coffers and increases residential services. Not San Anselmo. The residents and officials of this incorporated town are dead set against such intrusive growth with a mission to "maintain a small town ambiance." Cultural attractions are strictly small-scale: music and theater in the park, a historical museum, and library. But historical downtown shopping, tree-covered hills, and lots of green spaces make this locale one of the most desirable places to live in Marin County. 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 San Anselmo renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
