Methodology
Each month, using over 1 million Rentable listings across the United States, we calculate the median
1-bedroom and 2-bedroom rent prices by city, state, and nation, and track the month-over-month percent change. To
avoid small sample sizes, we restrict the analysis for our reports to cities meeting minimum population and
property count thresholds.
