Takoma Park combines small-town atmosphere with progressive ideals just minutes from Washington D.C. Those looking for apartments for rent in Takoma Park will discover a community nicknamed the "Azalea City," where historic Victorian homes line tree-shaded streets and a walkable downtown hosts independent shops and restaurants. With an average rent of $1,289 for one-bedroom apartments, Takoma Park offers more affordable options compared to nearby Silver Spring while providing access to the Takoma Metro station for D.C. commuters.
