Rental Market
The rental market in Aurora is tight, with the vacancy rate decreasing over the past several years and sitting at under 1%. The low vacancy rate can be attributed to the higher cost of homeownership in the area, and a lack of new apartment buildings being constructed in the city.

Average rent costs in Aurora are around $700 for a bachelor apartment, $1,050 for a one-bedroom apartment, $1,200 for a two-bedroom apartment, and $1,350 for a three-bedroom (or more) apartment.
