This Louisiana City Is #1 In Rent Prices For Studio Apartments

Rent prices are on a tear these days and it’s been like that for the last few years. When will rents drop again? One city in Louisiana is defying the trends in one crucial apartment segment for single people: studio apartments.

Baton Rouge is the cheapest city in America when it comes to rents for studio apartments, according to Rent.com.

Baton Rouge, which is located about 70 miles from New Orleans, has not been spared the high rents that other cities have been experiencing over the past few years when it comes to two- and three-bedroom apartments, but the new data bodes well for singles.
