Philadelphia, PA Apartments for Rent

Philadelphia, a city with deep American historical roots, offers diverse neighborhoods for those seeking apartments for rent. Founded in 1682 by William Penn, the city served as the nation's first capital and remains a cornerstone of American heritage, home to Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell. Apartments for rent in Philadelphia provide access to this historic setting while offering contemporary city living.

The city's rental market features average rent for a one-bedroom apartment at $1,724, with options from historic row houses in Society Hill to contemporary buildings in Center City. Philadelphia's 142 square miles include distinctive neighborhoods like Rittenhouse Square, Northern Liberties, and University City. The comprehensive public transportation system, including SEPTA subway, regional rail, and trolley lines, connects residents to downtown, cultural destinations, and Philadelphia International Airport. Beyond the iconic cheesesteaks, Philadelphia features the renowned Philadelphia Museum of Art, major league sports, and neighborhood markets, all at a lower cost than New York or Washington D.C.

Why Philadelphia?

  • History: The Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, and the Betsy Ross House.
  • Teams in all four major sports leagues — including the Phillies and the Eagles.
  • Exploring Valley Forge National Historical Park and sailing the Delaware River.
  • Amazing festivals, including the Brandywine Harvest Festival and the Free Library Festival.
  • Fishing, hiking, boating, rock climbing, bouldering, swimming, golfing, and horseback riding.
  • Three casinos, several museums, restaurants, art galleries, and hip, walkable neighborhoods.
