Nestled among the hills of the Ohio River Valley in West Virginia's panhandle, Weirton grew up within the steel industry. It is the only city in the U.S. located in one state while touching two other different states. Store that one away for your tryouts on Jeopardy!
Weirton, originally named Holiday Cove, dates back to the 18th Century when it was settled and farmed by pioneers. At the turn of the 20th Century, everything in this sleepy little town changed Ñ including its name! A booming steel mill drew people from all over the world and the area around it grew rapidly. The city became Weirton in 1947; the city's peak in population was back in 1970. 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 Weirton renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
