The apartment listings we track in Rhode Island range from $1,102 to $15,000 per month, as of November 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 Rhode Island?

There is not enough comparable history to report a reliable 30-day rent change for apartment listings in Rhode Island. Missing dates or a change in the buildings we track can prevent a comparison. Missing history does not mean rents stayed flat.

How many apartment listings do you track in Rhode Island?

We track 259 priced units at 22 apartment buildings in 9 cities, as of November 2026. 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 Rhode Island?

We have recorded rent data on 172 days from May 2026 through November 2026 for apartment listings in Rhode Island. Some dates can be missing. The chart only shows recorded data. The current month includes the days recorded so far.

Why can the headline rent differ from the trend chart in Rhode Island?

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, so a building with more listings does not receive extra weight. 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. 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 Rhode Island rent figures?

We schedule rent updates each day, but buildings can have different price-check dates. The month label does not mean we checked every price today. Open the building or apartment details for its latest price and availability.
