These are sample rents obtained via real estate search engines. They are random: It’s possible to find apartments at lower or higher rents. We did not find listings within our parameters in all medium sized cities (Ex: Armenia). In all examples, a rental agency is behind the listing and rents aren’t usually negotiable. You should not compare rents here to what someone who is already in a rental unit is paying, as existing tenants rents by law cannot be increased to reflect current market rates.
You can also do your own searches for apartments on these Spanish language sites:
