The 1-bedroom apartment listings we track in San Clemente, CA range from $2,357 to $3,425 per month, as of November 8, 2026. These are the lowest and highest listed prices. They are not a typical price for every apartment. The building, floor plan, and lease terms can affect the price. ### Are rents going up or down in San Clemente, CA? There is not enough comparable history to report a reliable 30-day rent change for 1-bedroom apartment listings in San Clemente, CA. Missing dates or a change in the buildings we track can prevent a comparison. The chart uses recorded prices for 1-bedroom apartments with a known unit identity. It averages those prices within each building before comparing buildings.

Listed rents range from $2,357 to $3,425 per month, as of November 8, 2026.

The $2,600 to $2,800 monthly range has the most matching listings: 17 units, or 50.0% of the priced apartments we track in San Clemente, CA.

These are 1-bedroom apartments. This is not the total number of apartments in those buildings. A listing can change or become unavailable. Open the apartment details to check its latest status. ### How much rent history is available for San Clemente, CA? We do not yet have enough accepted price records to draw a history chart for 1-bedroom apartment listings in San Clemente, CA. Current asking prices can appear before rent history is ready. We do not fill missing history with zero or with prices for a different bedroom count. ### Why can the headline rent differ from the trend chart in San Clemente, CA? The average at the top of the page gives each matching apartment equal weight. The chart first averages recorded prices within each building, then compares buildings. It removes the highest and lowest groups when at least ten buildings contribute and omits days with fewer than five buildings. Different dates, building counts, and listing mixes can produce different figures. The monthly table averages the recorded daily figures. ### Does my bedroom choice change the prices and answers? Yes. Your chosen area and bedroom count filter the asking rents, listing counts, rent ranges, and answers on this page. The active community exclusions are Student housing and 55+ / senior community and Corporate housing and Military / active duty housing and Veteran housing. When you choose a bedroom count, the history chart uses recorded prices for matching apartments with a known identity. If those records are missing, we leave the chart empty rather than use prices for other bedroom types. Open an individual apartment to check its own price history. ### Do these rents include utilities, parking, and other fees? We use the published total monthly rent when it is available and the base rent otherwise. Unknown fees are not zero. Utilities, parking, pet charges, deposits, and one-time costs can add to the amount you pay. Check the selected unit and lease terms for a complete quote. ### How should I compare free-rent offers with listed rent? A free-rent offer can reduce the effective cost over a lease without changing the listed monthly rent. Compare the same lease length and move-in date, then include required charges and the offer conditions. The market averages do not assume an unconfirmed discount. ### Does this page represent every rental in the market? These figures describe the priced apartment listings we track, not every rental home or every occupied apartment. Coverage and the mix of bedrooms, buildings, and locations can change. A lower market average does not prove that the same apartment received a price cut. ### How fresh are the San Clemente, CA rent figures? We schedule rent updates each day, but buildings can have different price-check dates. The latest accepted price check for these listings was November 8, 2026. The month label does not mean we checked every price today.
