LAKEVIEW — Think you are paying a lot to rent that one-bedroom, 500-square-foot apartment near the "L"?
You're right — rents in Lakeview hit about $1,400 in February, on average, a national rental company said.
That's nearly a 4 percent jump from January, reported Zumper.com, which offers 8,200 apartments in 30 Chicago neighborhoods.
And experts said rents are only going to increase as spring moving season begins.
"There are definitely options out there,” said Erin Smithe, 22, but “if you want to live by yourself, there's not as much.”
Smithe added: “It's so much easier if you have a roommate to find affordable rent."
