Nestled along the western shore of Lake Winnebago, Oshkosh combines small-city living with historical significance. Once known as the "Sawdust Capital of the World" during its lumber industry days, Oshkosh now offers apartments for rent in a community that honors its past while embracing the present. The city's 66,816 residents benefit from affordable housing options, with one-bedroom apartments renting for an average of $826 per month, well below Wisconsin's state average of $1,215. Each summer, the EAA AirVenture at Wittman Regional Airport draws aviation enthusiasts from around the globe, temporarily making it the world's busiest airport.
Oshkosh's location along Interstate 41 puts residents within a 30-minute drive of Appleton and Fond du Lac. The city features nine public parks, including Menominee Park with its zoo, while the revitalized downtown area showcases the Leach Amphitheater along the Fox River. Home to the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh and offering a cost of living below the national average, Oshkosh provides residents with recreational opportunities, educational resources, and affordable living options.

Apartment communities change their rental rates often - sometimes multiple times a day. We track the changes and keep you up to date when a rental rate decreases.
"Best value" units are located in buildings rated three stars or higher. We label apartment rentals that are priced significantly less than similar high-quality units nearby.
Apartment communities regularly advertise deals for new residents. Whether it's a move-in special or a free tv, we locate the rentals that offer a little something extra when you sign your lease.
