What does Cheapest cities to rent in United States show?

Austintown, United States has the lowest median monthly rent of the 30 cities compared: 728 EUR/month (ACS 2020-2024 5-year table-based Summary File, table B25064 (Median Gross Rent), place records, 2020-12-31).

How this list is built

Every row is a published median monthly rent observation measured in EUR/month, ranked lowest first. The values were observed in 2020. A place appears only when it publishes this exact metric, so an absent place means missing data rather than a low value. Only published cities with at least 20,000 residents and city-level observations qualify.

  • Compare the displayed value, unit, source date and geographic grain together.
  • A city label does not change a regional observation into a city measurement.
