"She grew up outside McHenry in Johnsburg, Illinois." These immortal lyrics are from the song Johnsburg, Illinois from Tom Waits. But not only is this a place in a song. It's also a great place to live.
Johnsburg is a small village found in the northeastern part of McHenry County and it's just about seven miles to the south of Wisconsin. It's a small town of about 7,000 residents and most of the people who live there have good jobs. This helps with keeping the economy in the town stable. 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 Johnsburg renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
