Depending where you look, the median rental price of a 1-bedroom apartment in Philly currently hovers around $1,200-ish.
Take Apartment List, for example, which found that as of May, the median price is $1,250. Zumper, however, claims that it's slightly higher at $1,280.
Many rental websites that publish these reports come up with their numbers using listings in their own databases. So take these numbers with a grain of salt.
The numbers vary even more when you look at the 2-bedroom median prices. According to Zumper, a 2-bedroom rental goes for $1,440. Apartment List says the median rental price is $1,580.
Like we said, grain of salt.
