Columbus, Minnesota spans 47 square miles of natural landscape, where the Carlos Avery Wildlife Management Area and Rice Creek create a scenic backdrop for everyday life. Located just north of the Twin Cities, this former township-turned-city provides convenient access to Minneapolis and St. Paul via Interstate 35, which branches into I-35E and I-35W within city limits.
While apartment options are limited within Columbus itself, neighboring communities like Forest Lake and Blaine offer rental opportunities that put residents close to both natural amenities and city conveniences. The area provides easy access to outdoor recreation, including the Carlos Avery Wildlife Management Area's hiking trails and wildlife viewing opportunities. Commuters appreciate the straightforward drive to the Twin Cities, while the less densely populated setting maintains a more relaxed pace of life.

Apartment Finder utilizes the industry's largest and most complete database of real-time rents and availabilities to help you find an amazing deal on your next rental.
Apartment communities change their rental rates often - sometimes multiple times a day. We track the changes and keep you up to date when a rental rate decreases.
"Best value" units are located in buildings rated three stars or higher. We label apartment rentals that are priced significantly less than similar high-quality units nearby.
Apartment communities regularly advertise deals for new residents. Whether it's a move-in special or a free tv, we locate the rentals that offer a little something extra when you sign your lease.
