"Now, in Texas, we believe in the rugged individual. Texas may be the one place where people actually still have bootstraps, and we expect folks to pull themselves up by them. But we also recognize there are some things we can't do alone. We have to come together and invest in opportunity today for prosperity tomorrow." (-- Julian Castro, Mayor of San Antonio)
While Julian Castro may have been talking as a whole, he may have very well have been talking about San Juan. Nestled on the western edge of Texas' southern tip, the city of San Juan is located in what is known as the Rio Grande Valley. This city of 33,856 people sits just along the Texas and Mexico border and is best known for its Basilica of our Lady of San Juan, considered one of the largest churches in the Rio Grande Valley. One of the reasons San Juan is so unique and culturally diverse is its close proximity to Mexico. People live, work, shop and travel from one side of the border to the other, which helps to create lasting cultural as well as economic relations between the business men and women that travel between the two countries. Just a few minutes from McAllen, TX, it is an easy day trip into Mexico for a marathon shopping excursion that will have you home by dinner! View San Juan City Guide
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 San Juan renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
