Charlottesville, VA Apartments for Rent

Charlottesville is home to the University of Virginia and Monticello, both recognized as UNESCO World Heritage sites that showcase Thomas Jefferson's architectural and educational legacy. Those searching for apartments for rent in Charlottesville will discover everything from historic properties near the Downtown Mall-an eight-block pedestrian area packed with shops and restaurants-to modern apartment communities in neighborhoods like Belmont and along West Main Street. The city's compact 11-square-mile area supports about 45,000 residents, creating a walkable environment where renters can easily reach local spots and cultural attractions.

Renting in Charlottesville makes sense for anyone wanting to be close to education, healthcare, and tech jobs, with the University of Virginia serving as the area's biggest employer and economic engine. Popular neighborhoods include the Rugby Road area near campus, Belmont with its mix of restored homes and newer developments, and the Fry's Spring area. Renters can explore McIntire Park and Riverview Park, plus take weekend trips to nearby Shenandoah National Park. The city offers easy access via Route 29 and Interstate 64, connecting you to Richmond and other regional destinations, while the Downtown Mall and local farmers' markets put dining and shopping within walking distance of many apartment communities.
