What $1,500 In Rent Gets You In South Florida

It’s always interesting to see how apartments across the country vary in rent. Not all cities’ rent prices are created equal. Take for instance, New York City - a one bedroom in the Upper West Side can easily go for $2,500 per month while a two bedroom apartment in Aventura, FL can go for $1,700 per month. There was a funny, yet, real article on Mashable explaining what $1,500 per month in rent can get you. Since we're are based out of Miami, we figured why not write about what people can get for $1,500 per month in rent in the Magic City.

Miami Beach: Have you heard of Miami Beach? Of course you have! What's not to love about this city? There are restaurants, bars, clubs, beaches, hotels and really interesting people.

Miami Beach is similar to New York City - expensive rent and small rooms, but great nightlife. For $1,500 you can find an apartment that's just 435 square feet.

Miami (Brickell): Good luck finding one bedrooms in Brickell for $1,500 per month. $1,500 a month will most probably get you a studio like this one with 421 square feet.

You want to live somewhere where there are plenty of young professionals? Brickell is the place to be.
