How much does The Johnny cost? (checked Oct 3, 2026)

The Johnny’s floor plans page showed 11 market-rate plans on Oct 3, 2026. Only the S2 studio (642 sq ft) had a posted price, $1,235 with one home available October 8, 2026. The other ten plans, including every one- and two-bedroom plan, said Limited Availability and Call for Pricing, so I cannot give you one- or two-bedroom rents from the site.

The site says a portion of its homes are in an Essential Housing program. This page covers only the market-rate plans. The homepage advertises 4 weeks free, with restrictions.

The site also lists plans labeled Affordable, and says a portion of its homes are in an Essential Housing program; I left the Affordable-labeled plans out. The page does not state a lease term for the posted price. Prices change daily.

The required monthly fixed fees listed add up to $184 ($33 + $19 + $45 + $5 + $15 + $60 + $4.45 + $2.55), before usage-based utilities. The sheet is dated 8/1/2026, older than today’s check, so confirm it is still current. I am not using third-party listing sites for fee numbers.
