SYRACUSE — The median rental price for most apartments in the Syracuse metro area fell almost 15 percent in January compared to the year-prior month.
That’s according to the February 2020 national rent report from Zumper, an apartment-rental listings website.
The median rental price of one-bedroom apartments in the Syracuse region declined 14.9 percent to $800 in January 2020 compared to January 2019. Rental rates for two-bedroom units in the area slipped 5 percent to $950 this January compared to the year-ago month.
