Indianapolis rental prices skyrocket amidst national dip
Indianapolis, Indiana – According to recent data from the May rental report published by realtor.com, Indianapolis is amongst the top ten metropolitan regions experiencing a significant year-over-year surge in rental prices.
Currently positioned as the fourth on the list, the city has witnessed a rental price escalation of 7.3%. Consequently, the median rent of an apartment within the area has now reached $1,331.
This accelerated growth rate comes in stark contrast to the trends observed on the national front.
