As of Tuesday, the interactive data shows residents are paying roughly $1945 in rent, across all types of housing. On a national scale, an Orlando citizen is paying $20 more on average.
One thing remains the same though, single bedroom units have stayed at a flat rate of $1490. On the other hand, renters who are looking for that extra second room are lucky.
The price of two bedroom units have dropped by 0.6 percent, or $1780
A vast majority of people who occupy the city’s homes are renters, sitting in at 63 percent, according to Zumper.
Similar to two bedroom units, if you’re looking to live with some extra company, this might help your case. The median cost of a four bedroom unit evens out to $2897, and in the past month there’s been a two percent drop in average rent prices.
The report also analyzed neighborhoods from most and least expensive to reside in.
The top three most expensive neighborhoods are:
- Baldwin Park with an average rent of $2400
- Central Business District with an average of $2200
- College Park with a average of $2190
