Learn moreA Real, Disclosed Spread Across Sources
Four separately reviewed sources cited a real spread for Green Bay one-bedroom rent: Rentometer's own January 2026 figure ran $1,169; RentHop's July 2026 figure ran notably lower at $945; Rent.com's figure ran approximately $960; and Rentable.co's figure ran approximately $970. This record discloses the full range rather than reconciling it to one number.
Genuinely Affordable, With Modest Year-Over-Year Growth
Whichever figure within the approximately $945-$1,169 range is used, Green Bay enters 2026 as a genuinely affordable rental market relative to the national one-bedroom average, with rent rising a real, modest approximately 2.72% year-over-year.
Rent Varies Nearly 3x by Specific Neighborhood
Eastside Green Bay was cited as the most affordable neighborhood at approximately $536 for a one-bedroom, followed by Seymour Park (~$745) and Westside Green Bay (~$750), while Downtown Green Bay ran highest at approximately $1,550 -- a real, disclosed spread nearly 3x wider than the citywide average figures alone suggest.
Downtown Commands a Real Premium for Urban Amenities
Downtown Green Bay's real, cited premium (~$1,550 average) reflects genuine demand for its walkable urban core and proximity to riverfront amenities -- renters prioritizing that lifestyle should budget accordingly rather than expecting citywide-average rent downtown specifically.
