Find a Baton Rouge Apartment

The second largest city in Louisiana has a very distinct identity. The capital city of the state is home to 230,000 residents, but the Greater Baton Rouge area, which includes the surrounding country, counts roughly 820,000 inhabitants. The area is one of the fastest growing in the country, and it has increased in size by hundreds of thousands of people over the last 15 years.

Baton Rouge has a thriving economy that has made it a draw for many young people over the last several years. The petrochemical industry thrives in the city, and it includes the second largest refinery in the U.S.A. Louisiana State University is another important employer in the area, with more than 5600 people on staff.

When to Search

Baton Rouge has a good selection of available apartments at any given time. However, the city is large enough that location matters. To have your pick of where you want to live, starting to look in the early summer is going to yield you the best options.

Staying in the Know

When you're applying for an apartment in Baton Rouge, tell landlords up front if you're a student. Some landlords will rent to students and some prefer not to. However, if you hide that information and then tell them you're a student when asked to provide proof of employment later in the application process, you can be sure that you've already sunk your chances.

Life in Baton Rouge

Transportation

Public transportation in Baton Rouge is operated by CATS, the Capital Area Transit System. CATS has synced its tracking system with the Route Shout app so that smartphone users can see exactly when and where busses will arrive, making it a very user friendly system. The app is free, and the addition of Wi-Fi on certain bus routes makes this even more accessible.

Where to play

Baton Rouge contains the trappings of a Capitol city. The State Capitol and the Louisiana State Museum are well worth visiting. If you're not from Louisiana, be sure to get outside of the city and experience the Bayou. Tours are available that will take you out in the swamp where you can see alligators and other Louisiana wildlife in a natural habitat. To complete the Louisiana experience, you need to get some authentic food. Try the Zeeland Street Market for affordable, authentic southern cooking.

Methodology

Each month, using over 1 million Rentable listings across the United States, we calculate the median 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom rent prices by city, state, and nation, and track the month-over-month percent change. To avoid small sample sizes, we restrict the analysis for our reports to cities meeting minimum population and property count thresholds.
