The rental market in Orlando is tough right now. According to a study from February of this year by the Harvard Joint Center for Housing, Orlando ranked second in the country for increase in rent prices for one-bedroom apartments. The same study claimed that the median income for renters in metro Orlando is $35,000 and the midpoint rent price is $1,000, which means that most Orlando residents are what’s called “rent burdened.”

In some cases, it’s actually cheaper to be a home owner than to rent in Orlando, but that’s always easier said than done. Since the market is constantly changing, here’s what $1,000 per month can get you in the Orlando area, right now.
