Zumper, an online rental marketplace platform, released its September National Rent Report, ranking Miami sixth among the most expensive U.S. cities for a one-bedroom apartment.
Analyzing rental data from more than 1 million active listings, Zumper found that the median asking rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Miami was $2,500, down 2% from August and 1.6% from September 2025. Two-bedroom rents fell 3% from August to $3,230, a 3.9% decline from a year earlier. Miami was one of two markets in the top 10 to record an annual decline in both bedroom types in September.
