    Coukd be better. So fixated on making the outside look good when the inside is the problem. Just because you remodeled the outside don’t mean raise the rent when the inside needs the most work done and haven't even begun to fix thise problems.

Frequently asked questions

When were prices and availability in Louisiana last updated?

Prices and availability in Louisiana were last updated on 24 Nov 2025.

What are the best apartments in Louisiana?

The best apartments in Louisiana are: Canebrake Apartment Homes, Reserve of Bossier City Apartment Homes, Summit of Shreveport Apartment Homes, Landing at Willow Bayou Apartment Homes and Shenandoah Bend.

What type of rental buildings are in Louisiana?

In Louisiana 33% of the housing is rented out compared to 67% of homes are owned, according to the most recent Census Bureau estimates. 8% of Louisiana’s apartments are found in large buildings of 50 units or more, 47% are located in smaller apartment complexes with less than 50 units, and 35% are single-family rentals.

Apartments in Louisiana under $1,200

Balancing snug and cheap is no joke when it comes to renting a place to live. “Are there any apartments near me under $1,200?” is a great question to start from. Knowing your budget means you’re one step ahead and on the right track. We’ve taken care of the rest and found 1,590 apartments for rent in Louisiana on which you’ll spend less than $1,200. A small, cheap rental means you’ll have to budget your living space as well. The great news is that keeping it simple pays off in more than one way. The cost of utilities is likely to run low, and you get the added benefit of not having to spend too much time cleaning up the whole place. Smaller apartments are more likely to be closer to the city center, so there are potential cuts to your transportation costs too. And here’s one more very special secret to add to your book-of-perks: you’re less likely to overshop when you know your space is limited.

Rentals near you under $1,200

Our goal is to help you find cheap apartments that live up to your dreams without crushing your budget. It may be a long shot to go looking for 3 bedroom apartments or even 2 bedroom for less than $1,200. The average rental size in Louisiana is 859 Sqft, but the $1,200 limit will probably narrow your search to places with a smaller square footage. Go through our listings and be on the look-out for a hassle-free studio or a 1 bedroom apartment. We trust you’ll turn it into a cozy home which is also budget-friendly to the core.

Finding a home nearby is easier than you think. Check out our Apartments Near Me page and take your pick!
