Bangor, ME Apartments for Rent

Bangor stretches along the Penobscot River in central Maine, where its legacy as the "Lumber Capital of the World" lives on through elegant Greek Revival and Victorian mansions lining tree-shaded streets and the iconic 31-foot Paul Bunyan statue. If you're hunting for apartments for rent in Bangor, you'll find everything from converted historic homes in the Broadway District to modern apartment communities citywide—all at prices that won't break the bank compared to coastal Maine.

Renting in Bangor means easy access to outdoor adventures and city perks. Downtown puts local restaurants, shops, and entertainment spots within walking distance of many apartment communities, while the 680-acre Bangor City Forest delivers year-round trails for hiking and outdoor activities. The city's a regional hub with the Cross Insurance Center and Maine Savings Amphitheater bringing in big-name concerts and events, plus cultural gems like the University of Maine Museum of Art and Maine Discovery Museum. Bangor's prime spot on Interstate 95 makes getting around Maine a breeze, and with Husson University and Eastern Maine Community College in town, there's a steady flow of educational and job opportunities.

Why Bangor?

  • Live performances at Penobscot Theatre, the northeastern-most professional theatre company in the US.
  • Hands-on fun at the Maine Discovery Museum, home to nature trails, a Dino Dig, and exhibits such as Artscape and Booktown.
  • Nearby Acadia National Park and the beautiful seaside town of Bar Harbor, popular vacation destinations.
  • The best seafood in the world, fresh from the cold North Atlantic waters, and served at top-notch restaurants.
  • Beautiful Hermon Mountain’s 600-foot snow tubing run, plus skiing, night skiing, and snowboarding.
  • Holbrook Island Sanctuary’s cross-country skiing, hiking, and canoeing, and Lake St. George State Park’s swimming, fishing, and boating.
