A 2-bedroom layout can make the rent easier to split, but the total monthly cost still needs to fit the household budget. Compare the asking rent, the median rent of $9,068, and the unit’s actual layout before deciding.

Fees, deposits, broker fees, utilities, and any required documentation can change the real monthly and upfront cost. Always ask for the full cost before you submit an application.
