Alameda, CA Apartments for Rent

Nestled on an island in the San Francisco Bay, Alameda combines historic charm with convenient access to the broader Bay Area. Those looking for apartments for rent in Alameda will discover tree-lined streets, Victorian architecture, and the transformed Naval Air Station, which now features museums and local producers at "Spirits Alley." With an average rent of $2,341 for a one-bedroom apartment, residents can access Oakland via the Posey and Webster Street Tubes or one of three bridges connecting the island to the mainland.

Alameda offers multiple transportation options, including ferry service to San Francisco and South San Francisco, as well as nearby BART stations for regional travel. The city features two main commercial areas—the Park Street district with its restored Art Deco Alameda Theatre and the Webster Street corridor—both offering local businesses and restaurants. Robert Crown Memorial State Beach provides waterfront recreation and hosts community events, while Bay Farm Island's bicycle bridge stands as the only pedestrian/bicycle-only drawbridge in the United States. The area experiences mild temperatures year-round, with average highs ranging from 58°F in January to 74°F in September.
