Prices are the lowest listed plan for each bedroom size on the property’s own site that day; “total monthly” includes mandatory monthly fees where the property shows it. Need to stay under $2,000? See downtown Austin apartments under $2,000. Rents change daily, so confirm current pricing and specials with each leasing office before you apply. Prices not shown on a property’s site are left as “ask”; we don’t guess.

1-bedroom vs 2-bedroom in downtown Austin
- The jump is steep downtown. At Alexan Waterloo the cheapest listed 2-bedroom was about $694 more than the cheapest 1-bedroom on Oct 14, 2026; at AMLI on 2nd and Residences at 6G the gap was larger.
- Compare price per square foot, not just rent: a 1,250 sq ft 2-bedroom can cost less per foot than a 700 sq ft 1-bedroom.
- Ask about specials on your exact plan. The Northshore’s 10 weeks free applies to penthouse units only.
What should I compare between these apartments?
- Base rent versus the total monthly price with required fees.
- How a special is applied (weeks free spread over the lease or taken up front) and the minimum lease term it needs.
- Parking: garage, covered or surface, and any added cost.
- Pet fees, pet rent and any weight or breed rules.
- Your commute at the times you actually drive it.
