City Guide for Elmont, NY

Elmont enjoys the prestige of being home to The Belmont Racetrack. The final leg of the Triple Crown, The Belmont Racetrack has been making dreams come true for over 100 years. Home to races featuring legends like Secretariat, Seabiscuit and Man O' War, it is a legend without rival. Still, there’s a lot more to Elmont than horses. The city is home to Nelson Demille and Vinny Testaverde as well as a large portion of America’s history.

Located on the border of Queens, Elmont is an ideal place for enjoying the good life outside the city. This is a classic American bedroom community. If too much quiet gives you a headache, don't even think about moving here. Residents retreat from their jobs and busy lives in the downtown high rises to quiet suburban homes on tree-lined lanes with manicured lawns and cul-de-sacs. One of the original settlements that flourished during the mass immigration of the 1800s, this area has seen more history than most of the country can claim. It remains a desirable place to begin a new life (unless you hate suburbia). See more

What to keep in mind when looking for apartments with balconies in Elmont, NY

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 Elmont renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
