Moraine, Ohio was originally part of the Village of Kettering. Kettering was named after Charles F. Kettering, who invented the electrical starting motor and leaded gasoline. Moraine, however, seceded (sounds kind of exciting, right?) from Kettering in 1953, but Mr. Kettering still left a lasting impression on the city. Since Moraine is known for being a manufacturing town, his inventions were especially important for General Motors, which owned and operated a plant there.
While technically it's its own city, with a population of a little over 6,000, Moraine is typically considered a suburb of Dayton. Nestled between Dayton and Cincinnati, and less than two hours to Indianapolis, there are plenty of places to go if you're itching for the big city. 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 Moraine renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
