Southport got its name due to its location on the south side of the Chemung River -- who'd have thought!
Southport, New York, is a small town located in Chemung County. Although the first settlers came to the area in 1788, Southport was not officially established until 1822. Southport is about two and a half hours inland from Lake Erie and roughly four hours from New York City. This area is known for its lush river valleys and hilly upland areas. According to the 2010 census, the population in this area was roughly 10,940 and is not growing very quickly. 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 Southport renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
