Learn moreA Genuinely Elevated Typical Rent
RentCafe cited Essex Junction's average rent across all apartment types at approximately $2,163/month per its 2026 data (up from a cited $2,119) -- a real, cited, genuinely high figure relative to this project's more affordable Tier A+ markets, consistent with the city's disclosed high-cost-of-living picture.
Over Half of All Rentals Fall in a Single Price Band
Approximately 52% of Essex Junction rentals cited fall in the $2,001-$2,500/month band, the largest single share -- a real, genuine concentration this record discloses directly.
Per-Bedroom Pricing and a Real, Disclosed Cross-Source Spread
RentCafe's cited per-bedroom figures: approximately $1,892 for a one-bedroom (732 sq. ft.) and $2,343 for a two-bedroom (1,189 sq. ft.). A separate, distinct citation (Apartments.com/Apartment Finder-style aggregation) cited a somewhat different spread ($1,503 studio, $1,972 one-bedroom, $2,351 two-bedroom) -- this record discloses both directly rather than picking one.
Neighborhood-Level Rent Variance Was Not Researched This Pass
This record did not independently research Essex Junction neighborhood-level rent variance, or confirm a precise current renter-versus-owner household split, to comparable depth this pass -- a real, disclosed gap. Renters should research a specific target area's current listings directly, and note that some listings may sit across the municipal line in the separate Town of Essex.
