Dallas is the third largest city in Texas with a population of around 6 million people. It is a magnet for young professionals who wish to work and live in a city that offers arts and culture, fine dining, professional sports, an active nightlife and good weather throughout most of the year. To find all of that in one place is amazing. In many cities, it would be too much to ask for all of that and a reasonable cost of living. Because of its competitive apartment rental market, Dallas does exactly that.
Dallas apartments span a 360-degree array of choices. The historic East Dallas and Lakewood areas feature apartments mixed in tastefully among the Prairie-style and Victorian homes. The many universities in the Dallas Metroplex draw in a population base that is vibrant, hip and active. Retirees can find endless choices of Dallas apartments that will allow them to spend time on their favorite pursuits. (Fore!)
The real bargains in the Dallas apartment market are downtown, where the average rent for a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment falls between $700 and $900. Compare that to the mind-boggling rental rates in major cities like New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles or Chicago. In North Dallas, newer highrise apartments that offer all the latest styles, materials and accommodations. This allows for anyone to live just a short distance away from work, with so many corporations calling this “Destination City” home.
