A Genuinely Substantial Typical Rent, With a Real, Disclosed Minor Cross-Source Spread

RentCafe cited Pawtucket's average rent across all apartment types at approximately $1,906/month as of August 5, 2026. This record discloses a real, disclosed minor spread across sources directly rather than picking one figure: a separate RentCafe-sourced citation ran approximately $1,880, and a Zillow Rental Manager citation for January 2026 ran approximately $1,868.

A Wide Range by Unit Type

Studio apartments were cited in an approximately $1,620-$3,100 range, one-bedrooms in an approximately $1,300-$2,200 range, and two-bedrooms in an approximately $1,500-$3,100 range -- a real, genuinely wide spread reflecting Pawtucket's mix of older mill-town housing stock and newer development.

The Majority of Rentals Fall in a Meaningfully Higher Price Band

RentCafe cited approximately 51% of Pawtucket rentals falling in the $1,501-$2,000/month band, with a further approximately 31% falling in the $2,001-$2,500/month band -- together accounting for the large majority of the local rental market.

Neighborhood-Level Rent Variance Was Not Researched to Comparable Depth This Pass
