I’ll be looking for a place near downtown and want a realistic figure.
What is the typical rent for a one‑bedroom apartment in Charlottesville?
1 Answer
The average rent in Charlottesville is $1,750 per month. One‑bedroom units in central areas tend to be at or just above that average, while apartments farther from the core may be a bit lower. When budgeting, factor in additional costs such as utilities, internet, and renter’s insurance, which can add $150‑$250 per month. To get current listings, check online rental platforms, local classifieds, or contact the city’s housing authority for information on affordable‑housing programs and any rent‑control policies that may apply.
A starting point only — it may be incomplete or out of date. Check official sources for anything important, and add your own answer if you know Charlottesville.
