Wickliffe, OH

79 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Looking at Wickliffe from a narrow scope often gives people the wrong idea of it. The city has had a consistent population drop since the 1970's. Admittedly, this is the sign of an area in trouble; but this simply isn't the case in Wickliffe. The city still has a population density of nearly 3,000 residents per square mile. In reality, the population decrease likely has more to do with the seeming overpopulation that occurred between the 1950's and the 1970's, when the number of residents in the city quadrupled.

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