Where Is the Best City for Renters?

Aug. 1, 2019

CNBC reports that Scottsdale, Ariz., is the best city for renters due to its high quality of life.

“The good news for renters is that you can move away from the big city and have a great quality of life in Scottsdale,” said Jill Gonzalez, senior analyst at WalletHub.

Overland Park, Kansas, came in second place, while Bismarck, North Dakota, followed in third place, according to WalletHub’s analysis.

Four of the top 10 cities were based in Arizona, located just outside of Phoenix.

The median rent in Arizona is $1,550, while in the Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale metro region it’s $1,595.

In Scottsdale proper, living expenses are higher: $2,200 is the median rent in this resort destination.
