Kearns, UT 252 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Kearns started life as an Army Air Base in the 1940s and grew quickly over the next several decades. The base closed down long ago, but the town has thrived and today is home to many established businesses. Kearns is actually a township rather than a town, although the difference isn't really a big deal --something to do with a township having fewer elected officials than a town. Okay, now that the civics lesson is over, here are some key facts about Kearns. The town, or township, is in the Salt Lake City metro region and has a total area of 4.8 square miles. The altitude is pretty high, at 4,528 feet. The population density is rather high as well, so you will have plenty of friendly neighbors when you get here. View Kearns 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 Kearns renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
