Rental prices steadily increased slightly over the year in 1, 2, and 3 bedrooms, and decreased very slightly for studio apartments. A continued housing shortage, high mortgage rates, and the popularity of living in Boston are keeping rental prices high. The average rent in Boston is $3,842 - more than 2 times the national average of $1,660 but only slightly more than last year.
