Boulder, CO Apartments for Rent

Boulder is home to the Flatirons, those dramatic rock formations that rise from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, creating an impressive natural backdrop for this college town. The University of Colorado Boulder and research centers like the National Center for Atmospheric Research bring academic energy to the area. If you're searching for apartments for rent in Boulder, you'll discover everything from downtown communities near Pearl Street Mall to places closer to campus and surrounding neighborhoods.

Renting in Boulder means you're close to more than 45,000 acres of open space and mountain parks, with hundreds of miles of trails just minutes from most apartment communities. Pearl Street Mall anchors downtown with its independent shops, restaurants, and entertainment spots within walking or biking distance of many rentals. Different neighborhoods offer their own character - The Hill sits near campus, Mapleton Hill features historic homes, and the Chautauqua area provides its own atmosphere. Highway 36 connects you to Denver and the wider metro area. Boulder's focus on sustainability and outdoor living, plus its proximity to both mountain recreation and employment centers, makes it an attractive option for renters.

Why Boulder?

  • Since Boulder is located in the foothills, you’ll have scenic views and easy access to outdoor hobbies like hiking, tubing, and biking
  • Boulder is super pedestrian-friendly and bike-friendly, with over 300 miles of bikeway in the city
  • Boulder is home the University of Colorado Boulder
  • Boulder has a quirky arts and dining scene
  • Boulder is known as one of the best places to live in Colorado
