Sizing up to a 1 bedroom in this same zone adds about $199 per month at typical starting prices, which is worth knowing before paying a premium for the largest studio plan.
Newer versus older buildings
In buildings finished 2015 or later, the typical studio here starts at $1,699 across 34 communities. In older buildings it starts at $1,420 across 25. Newer plans are smaller too, a median 534 square feet against 594 in the older buildings, so the gap per square foot is wider than the gap in rent.

How we price studio homes
Our prices come from three places: data we buy from apartment data providers, our own collection from community websites, and our team's research on properties every day. A price labeled "studio from" is the lowest studio rent in our latest data for that community. When the small line under a price names its source, the date in that line is the day we got the price. Square footage and move in dates come from the same data. When a community's cheapest advertised price is an income qualified program rate, we keep it out of the market stats and say so on the card.
