Aiken, SC Apartments for Rent

Nestled in South Carolina, Aiken combines Southern charm with rich history. Known as "The City of Trees," Aiken features tree-lined streets and historic architecture throughout its neighborhoods. Founded in 1835 as a terminus for the South Carolina Canal and Railroad Company, Aiken later became a winter retreat for Northeastern families in the late 19th century, establishing the Aiken Winter Colony. The city enjoys a moderate climate, with average temperatures ranging from 45°F in January to 82°F in July.

Apartments in Aiken offer value with average one-bedroom units at approximately $1,116 per month, below the South Carolina state average of $1,384. The city spans over 21 square miles with rental options throughout various neighborhoods, from downtown's historic buildings to newer suburban developments. Residents appreciate the proximity to major employers, including the Savannah River Site 20 miles away. Local attractions include Hitchcock Woods (one of America's largest urban forests at 2,100 acres), the Aiken Thoroughbred Racing Hall of Fame, and downtown's shopping district, all accessible from most rental locations.
