A new
report confirms what all New Yorkers already know - New York City has the most
expensive rent in the country.
Zumper's
National Rent Report says that after 18 months of disruption to the housing
market due to the pandemic, New York has officially surpassed San Francisco as
the most expensive market to rent an apartment in the country.
The median
rental cost of a one-bedroom apartment here is now $2,810, narrowly
edging San Francisco, which stands at $2,800.
Prices drop
significantly after that, with Boston in third place at $2,300, San Jose just a
bit lower at $2,200, and Washington, D.C. at $2,160.
