Burlington hugs the eastern shore of Lake Champlain and made history in 2015 as the first U.S. city to run completely on renewable energy. When you're searching for apartments for rent in Burlington, you'll discover a walkable downtown anchored by Church Street Marketplace-a four-block pedestrian mall packed with local shops, cafes, and restaurants. The Hill Section charms with tree-lined streets and historic architecture near Champlain College, while the South End buzzes with converted industrial buildings that now showcase art galleries and creative studios.

Renting in Burlington means enjoying outdoor adventures alongside city perks. The Burlington Bike Path traces the waterfront and links up with the Island Line Trail, which stretches into Lake Champlain along a historic railroad causeway. You'll find apartment communities near the University of Vermont campus, the UVM Medical Center, and downtown employers. Walk to Waterfront Park, North Beach, or grab fresh produce at the year-round farmers' market in City Hall Park. Getting around is easy with I-89 connecting Burlington to the rest of Vermont and beyond, plus Burlington International Airport in nearby South Burlington for your travel needs.
