Jefferson Valley-Yorktown is a census-designated place in Yorktown, New York. The city takes its name from the Battle of Yorktown which, oddly enough, was fought near Yorktown, Virginia.
Jefferson Valley-Yorktown has been around since before the Revolutionary War, although not much occurred in this area. The biggest excitement in the small hamlet happened on the rainy night of the Sept. 24, 1780. British Army Major Andre was captured in Tarrytown and was conducted through Jefferson Valley over Route 6 and Main Street (still in existence), on his way to the Robinson House near Garrison. General Washington wanted Andre brought to him there, but gave orders that the party avoid the main roads. The choice of the route taken suggests that Jefferson Valley was a remote district. Not so much anymore. With a population of 14,142 residents and a regional shopping mall, it's hardly the insignificant village of the past. 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 Jefferson Valley-Yorktown renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
