Home to Southern Methodist University, the Bush library and the (presidents) Bush family, the Highland Park area is one of North Texas' crown jewels. But oddly, it was a Yankee from Philly (Henry Exall) who broke ground on the modern-day Highland Park. Back in the 1800s, Exall's intention was to create a development called Philadelphia Place. A bad economy caused him to abandon his plans and opened the door for Dallasite John Armstrong to snatch up some of the land and develop it as Highland Par...
Today, Highland Park, located about four miles north of downtown Dallas, has an approximate population of 8,500 people who reside within its roughly 2-square-mile boundaries, according to the last U.S. Census. Probably due to its close proximity to "Big D," the median commute time for Highland Park residents is just 16.3 minutes. Less than 4% of residents drive 45 minutes or more to work. Less time commuting equals more time enjoying life. And there's plenty to enjoy if you're fortunate to live in Highland Park. 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 Highland Park renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
