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.

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 Summerville, SC 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.
