Glenarden, MD 109 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

The town of Glenarden covers a little over a single square mile and is home to 6,000 people (according to 2010 census data), so it couldn't exactly be called a bustling metropolis. However, if you're looking to live in a small community where everyone knows your name, then this is the place to be. Should you ever get bored of small-town life, you only have to travel around 12 miles and you'll be in the center of Washington, D.C. View Glenarden 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 Glenarden renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
