Rent prices across the United States have skyrocketed in the two years since the COVID-19 pandemic, and residents in many big coastal cities have continued to face higher prices. But there are still many livable cities where renting remains affordable — and even some regions where it’s falling sharply. Rent.com, an online property rental site, compiled the 100 cheapest cities for renters in the country. Many of the more affordable areas are in the U.S. heartland and some in the South. The ranking was based on Rent.com’s rental data for one- and two-bedroom units between June 2021 to June 2022. Only cities with populations of 50,000 or higher were included.

Read More »Rent.com also shared its list of the most expensive cities across the country to land a rental. A majority of the cities are located in western or southern U.S. states. Several are also in or near major technology hubs, keeping rents high and apartments in low supply due to the industry’s high salaries and consistent growth during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Rent.com’s report. Jersey City, New Jersey, which is located across the Hudson River from Manhattan, ranked as the No. 1 city for the highest rent in the United States during the survey period. The average monthly rent in Jersey City increased from $3,308 in 2021 to $5,500 in 2022, according to the report — which is an increase of 66.25%. Boston ranked second with the average rental rate jumping from $4,164 in 2021 to $4,878 in 2022 — a 17.14% annual rent increase. The California cities of Palo Alto ($4,672), Glendale ($4,472), and Santa Monica ($4,357) rounded out the top five. The majority of the cities with the highest rent (58%) are on the West Coast. Out of the top 100 cities, 41% are in California. Another 28% of the most expensive cities for renters are in the South — and a majority of the southern cities (57%) are in Florida. The Northeast had just 13% of the 100 cities with the highest rent in the U.S., including Bayonne, New Jersey, Cambridge, and Quincy, Massachusetts. Only one Midwest city made the top 100 list for expensive rent: Chicago (No. 46 – $2,904 on average). RELATED: Despite high rent, it’s still cheaper than buying a home – except in these cities
